Can't connect to NBCSports on Opera

I try to connect to NBCSports using Opera VPN from the Xfinity portal. It seems to go through correctly, but then I get a message that we're having difficulty connecting to NBCSports. If I go directly to NBCSN, and click the link to connect to Xfinity, I seem to get bounced through an Adobe page and routed back to the same NBCSports page to connect to Xfinity.

Using Safari with IPVanish I can get to Xfinity and from there to NCBSports without the error that we're having difficulty connecting to NBCSports. It goes straight into the selected content.

Thanks.

I've just checked here and could connect (directly) to www.nbcsports.com without problems using Opera VPN.

I could also go to http://tvgo.xfinity.com/live/network/nbcsports but it says that i need a subscription.

When I go through Xfinity and log in, the log in always fails and for some reason I'm on an Adobe page

The Adobe page happens if I try to go to log in from NBC. If I go to Xfinity first and log in there and from there to NBC the connection always fails. After it fails it's showing this

This video cannot be played.
This content on Xfinity TV is not available for viewing with Chrome’s Incognito mode. To play this video using Chrome, please view this page without Incognito mode enabled.
If you are not in Incognito mode, please try resetting your DRM license.

I wasn't seeing that earlier, but that's what I'm getting at the moment. The problem seems to be caused because VPN is now only available in a private window.

Thanks.

Can you connect to NBCSN without VPN? I have an Xfinity/Comcast subscription.

It seems so. At least http://tvgo.xfinity.com/live/network/nbcsports loaded fine but, as i said, i can't go beyond that point.

Do you have an affinity account?

I think what you're seeing is a different problem. I'm excluded from using Opera VPN because it's being seen as coming from a private page.

Nope.
