H&I is a broadcast network carried by a local TV station. Comcast just passes on what is aired. Either the station is off the air, dropped the network, or no longer has an agreement with Comcast to pass it on.
Can you post your general location and if you know what station used to carry it? There should have been a station ID bug every 30-60 minutes.
Same in Albuquerque. Seeing Cozi TV on Channel 383 instead of H&I. I had never paid attention to the station ID that showed up while watching the TV. Will there be a way to pay extra for H&I?
Since it's a broadcast network, another station will need to pick it up. The H&I website says it is on KOB 4.4, but Wikipedia doesn't show it. Not sure which is correct. Try seeing if Decades is in your guide, as that is what Wikipedia shows as airing on 4.4. There could have been a change.
I doubt if Comcast will know much of anything. If it moved to another station, that station may not have an agreement with Comcast to carry any subchannels. KOB is the NBC station, and they also carry ThisTV, Comet, Decades (probably replaced by H&I), Defy TV, TrueReal and Newsy. If Comcast carries any of them, H&I would be nearby. If not, then Comcast may only carry the primary channel, NBC.
In trying to be persistent, I finally went to the handitv.com and saw the banner across the top of the page stating the cable channels will be published in the "weeks ahead". At least we can watch our favorite shows on the laptop until KOB makes a decision on the cable channels. Thanks again.
@user_afbba8 Where are you located? As noted in earlier replies, H&I is a broadcast network from a local TV station. Comcast just passes on whatever they air. The beginning or middle of a month seem to be the most common times for these changes to occur.
That channel you provided is a local programming channel. Unfortunately, Xfinity does not have the ability to forecasting what the networks are planning on doing unless they send us the information. If it is showing weather, coming up on the program schedule, that local channel may be adjusting what and when they are broadcasting.
I no longer work for Comcast.

I don't have Decades. Currently chatting with the third customer agent with Xfinity. Thanks for your research!
