Virginia Ping from 150 to 105
I’ve had a 105 ping virginia couple months ago now it’s constantly at 150. I didn’t change my network provider or anything, the ping suddenly went up by 45 and it stays there. With paid Ping boost 3rd party programs (such as Lagofast) i can put my ping on virginia from 150 to 105 again but this only gives me a 24h free trial and costs money. I would like for virginia to be 105 again.

Without ping booster (current state)
With ping booster
Back then it would be 105 constant without any 3rd party program so
mind running this command in cmd?
the reason this program can lower my ping to 105 is because they’re giving me better routes than the game does
later when i’m home
:AMThumbsUp:
administrator needed?
nope
also if that’s relevant, the route starts from frankfurt. so like frankfurt to virginia routes have been mixed up or something a while ago
👍

EU
sorry I'm stupid lemme send you the right command
i am originally from EU and the server i tryna play on is NA

I think you confuse us for your internet provider @sipan , let me explain. We provide Valorant game and servers across europe (and other regions) & connection to the internet is your own choice, this is a service you buy from local ISPs, they then connect to the nearest internet exchange(assuming as everyone doing their own routing) when you play/select to game on NA servers as soon as the packet leaves your ISP its being routed via what they think is the best route to NA most likely handled by rest of the internet so there is no guarantee where it lands and how long it takes to route there. There is no way we as Riot can guarantee that I hope you agree.
^ TLDR in order to reach cross region servers is to reach multiple ISPs or transit providers. if the hop is more than one or two things starts to get super complicated. You can try VPNs as this bypass routing and logs you directly to closest VPN server < - > Val gamepod server
alright, got that, thank you
