ESPN3

I have watched streaming games for years on ESPN3, but currently all were blocked and the message "You are not authorized to play this content.  Please contact your provider."  is given.  I tried on multiple platforms, signed in and out.  Contacted ESPN and they had received many complaints from Cox subscribers...said it was a problem with Cox and the acccounts need re-authorizing....Contacted the horrific chat for Cox... and after 2 hours of them  randomly resetting my modem and other things I wasn't asking about, they said contact ESPN.......   What's up?  Is ESPN3 no longer a benefit of Cox?
