Common reasons ESPN looks down when it isn't

What to check before blaming ESPN

  1. Load a scores page — if it updates, ESPN is up and the problem is video entitlement.
  2. Confirm your TV provider or ESPN+ login before assuming a fault.
  3. Turn off a VPN, which triggers location checks on streams.
  4. Try the website rather than the app.

ESPN status — frequently asked

Is ESPN down right now?

ESPN is up and responding in 181 ms. That reading is from itsnotyou's monitoring servers, 86 seconds ago.

Is it ESPN that's down, or is it my internet connection?

It can be either — that's the hard part. The status on this page is measured from itsnotyou's monitoring servers, so ESPN can look healthy here while your own connection is the real problem. The itsnotyou test checks both at once and returns a single verdict in about 10 seconds.

Why is ESPN loading slowly?

A slow ESPN usually comes down to one of two things: ESPN's own servers are responding slowly — itsnotyou measures time to first byte, and anything over 1500 ms is flagged as slow — or your local connection is the bottleneck. Running the test tells the two apart.

How often is ESPN's status checked?

ESPN is probed every few minutes, around the clock, from itsnotyou's monitoring servers. The verdict and the 24-hour response-time history on this page update automatically.
