If you're stuck in an "Attempting to Authenticate" loop, here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try: 1. Restart your Router and Console: Power cycle your internet router and your console to reset any network issues. 2. Check Network Connection: Ensure your console has a stable internet connection. You can test this in your console’s network settings. 3. Allow VALORANT through Firewall: Make sure your network isn't blocking VALORANT. If you're using a firewall or security software, ensure it permits VALORANT. 4. Reinstall VALORANT: This can help clear out any corrupted files or settings causing the issue. 5. Check Server Status: Sometimes, the problem is on Riot’s end. Check if there’s any server maintenance or outage on the official VALORANT support site (https://support-valorant.riotgames.com/hc/en-us) or social media. If the issue persists, you may need to submit a ticket to Riot Games Support for further assistance.
