High ping can be frustrating, but there are several steps you can try to troubleshoot and potentially fix the issue:
1. Close Background Applications: Ensure no other applications are using your bandwidth (e.g., streaming services, downloads).
2. Wired Connection: If you’re using Wi-Fi, switch to a wired Ethernet connection for more stability.
3. Router Restart: Restart your router or modem.
4. Server Selection: Make sure you are connected to the correct server region in VALORANT settings.
5. Firewall and Antivirus: Ensure VALORANT is allowed through your firewall and antivirus.
6. Network Reset: Run the following commands in Command Prompt as an administrator:
netsh int ip reset
, ipconfig /release
, ipconfig /renew
, ipconfig /flushdns
, netsh winsock reset
.
7. Check ISP: Contact your Internet Service Provider to ensure there are no issues with your connection.
8. Update Drivers: Ensure your network drivers are updated to the latest versions.
