High ping can be frustrating! Here are a few steps to help reduce it: 1. Check Background Applications: Close any unnecessary applications consuming your bandwidth (e.g., streaming services, downloads). 2. Wired Connection: If you're on Wi-Fi, try using a wired Ethernet connection for more stable performance. 3. Router Reboot: Reboot your router to clear any potential issues. 4. Update Network Drivers: Ensure your network drivers are up to date. 5. Firewall Settings: Allow VALORANT through your firewall. You can find detailed instructions here. 6. VPN: If you are using a VPN, try disabling it. 7. Network Command Prompt: - Open Command Prompt as Admin - Run the following commands:
netsh int ip reset
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
ipconfig /flushdns
netsh winsock reset

netsh int ip reset
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
ipconfig /flushdns
netsh winsock reset

8. ISP Issues: Contact your Internet Service Provider to check for any issues on their end. If the issue persists after trying these steps, you might want to contact Riot Support for more personalized assistance: https://support-valorant.riotgames.com/hc/en-us

In the left pane, click "Change adapter settings" 4. Right-click the connection for which you want to disable IPv6, and select Properties. 5.

A lot of peaople have this issue with ping for example when I go to shooting range and spawn bots I have 2k ping, normally I have 13 This error has been around for 2 patches I have internet issues only in valorant with 300mb internet connection on cable Some my friends have this issue too I think this is problem with servers, maybe too weak or something
