Ping spikes can be frustrating, especially when they only occur in VALORANT. Here are a few additional steps you can take to try to resolve the issue:
1. Use Wired Connection: If you're on Wi-Fi, try switching to a wired Ethernet connection for a more stable network.
2. Close Background Applications: Ensure no background applications (like downloads, streaming, or other games) are consuming your bandwidth.
3. Firewall Settings: Make sure VALORANT is allowed through your firewall. Instructions can be found here.
4. Update Network Drivers: Ensure your network drivers are up-to-date by visiting your manufacturer's website.
5. VPN/Tunneling Apps: Temporarily disable any VPNs or tunneling applications as they might affect the connection.
6. Check Riot's Server Status: Sometimes the issue could be due to server-side problems. Check Riot's support site or social media for updates.
7. ISP Issues: Reach out to your ISP to ensure there are no issues on their end that might be affecting your connection.
If these steps don't resolve your issue, consider submitting a ticket to Riot Support with details of your problem and troubleshooting steps you've already taken.
