High ping in VALORANT can be very frustrating. Here are some steps you can try to reduce your ping:
1. Check your Connection:
- Ensure you are on a stable internet connection; wired connections are preferred over wireless ones.
- Disconnect any other devices that might be using up bandwidth.
2. Close Background Applications:
- Close any applications running in the background that might be using your internet connection.
3. Optimize Network Settings:
- Change your DNS settings to a faster DNS provider (e.g., Google DNS: 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4 or Cloudflare: 1.1.1.1).
4. Adjust In-game Settings:
- In your VALORANT settings, disable any in-game voice chat and background videos.
5. Router Maintenance:
- Restart your router.
- Update your router’s firmware if necessary.
6. ISP Issues:
- Sometimes, the issue could be with your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Contact them to ensure there are no issues on their end.
If none of these steps help, it could be a temporary server issue, in which case you might have to wait for Riot to resolve it.
