Ping Spikes And Packet Loss
So I have been playing valorant on my WiFi using USB WIFI ADAPTER and using that in valorant I play with 20 ms and no packet loss but when I connect the same WIFI through Ethernet I start facing packet loss and lot of ping spikes and sometimes fps drop ( idc about fps I'll fix it myself) and why I need Ethernet is because my WIFI USB once getting heated it start disconnecting my WIFI meaning between the game it completely disables and comes after few times and sometimes more causing issue to team mates and etc.
Hope you will help me fix this shirt issue

well you kinda answered your own issue, you need an ethernet cable to your router, there is very little what Riot can do about this my friend
They said they face packet loss and ping spikes when they use ethernet :val_HelloBro:
Its prob a bad ethernet cable
Or drivers just need to be updated
oh... not enough coffee in my to read apparently :val_KekwSob:
well
^ what that guy said! then
That guy :val_Hampter:
that one random dude
sobs
so
basically
what i do is
i connect the internet
through my tablet
and when the internet is connected to tablet
Through ur tablet mhm
i connect it with usb tertaring
Mhmm
whateevet that is
yeah
Leave that
When u connect the ethernet cable
yes?
It should give out a light
On the end that u connect to ur pc
What color is that light
uhh
i didn't understand
Connect ur ethernet cable
yes

Now where u put the cable into the pc
Physically
yes
There should be a light
there is no light given
i have trash cabinet
the cabinet of mine is m93p
The light comes from the ethernet cable itself...
Like this

Sometimes atleast

this is what it looks like
u see the top most cable ?
No the Ethernet port
the top one is the ethner port

and the bottom one too
between 2 are headphones port
:val_HUH:
and currentrly im connected to top one
(Refurbished) Lenovo ThinkCentre Desktop(Intel Core i5 / Windows 10 Pro, MS Office)Black
my cabinet exact name
i said i m using the my tablet and i use a cable that is used for charging it too..
i use the charging cable
connect to top most port
usb charged ofc
and then connect my tablet
@Kenji-San can u help?
nah man I am out, this is home network shenanigans stuff :val_KekwSob:
who can help me bruh
get a new pc
๐
even i want it
but im not age of earning and my dad's doesn't support gaming lol
@Jidat @Metamorphosis will chip in some money they are rich
L dad
well i feel it a bit offending as i respect him
and after all hes saying for my own goods
I dont know what you are running at home man, first of all make sure you have a clean ping to your gateway.
Gateway is your router IP if that have some packetloss or jitter you wont get anything good in Valorant
when that is clean and you still have bad gameplay experience then we need to look beyond that point
Eh connect Ethernet cable directly from your router
Instead of your tablet
bro the wifi i use has same everything but when i use it through ethernet it gives packet loss
i don't have ethnet cable
and with that Dad obviously it was a joke brother, I bet he is super cool and loving father
Thatโs not Ethernet :ChillBar_pray:
it work's as a ethernet
before it didn't gave any packet loss etc
idk i took a break for 2 months due to exams and then this issue's
set it all up and do constant pings to your gateway, leave it there for few minutes while you play valo and see if it corresponds with your packetloss in game or latency jumps
Yea u have not seen my pc case
atleast u got a graphic card
not like me
i3-4160T
16gb ram
no gpu
500gb storage
Pretty ironic that mine is actually worse
i think those aren't even enough component to run pc lmao
I think you have to hit minimum requirements to play Valo, I am sure its a graphic card as well
Bold of u to assume that i have a gpu
?
I have an i3 4150
8 gigs of ddr3
300 gigs of hdd storage (12 year old hdd)
Ezz
I bet you still can hit higher rank than @lyra ๐
i have done maximum optimization and i can run smoothly valorant and i also use custom os so minimum lag it has proccess like 100 after installing riot games steam epic gta 5 discord and much more
Heโs radiant with 40 fps
D3 peak
try custom os hehe
bruh
DAMNNNN
Current P3
owww
skills.
WELLLLLL BACK TO MY ISSUEE.
Yea get an actual ethernet cable
almost same btw it's just that 16 gigs of dd3
bro
my wifi is far
U have no idea how much of a difference that extra 8 gig makes
and it goes through main house
i have man
i had 4 gigs
i have upgraded
Bold of u to assume that mine is close :val_HelloBro:
I have the ethernet cable stitched to the top wall going through 2 corridors into my room through a hole that i made
man is there any way i can boost the internet?
i had good one before
it just suck now after break idk why
Either its the connection between ur tablet and router or the ethernet cable itself
Now how do we check which one it is? I have no clue.
nah man
the router is fine
because i use the same wifi from that router through wireless
and it work's without packet loss
it's just when i use ethernet
how do you know that ?
my pc is not able to completely recive the network
That is not fckng ethernet
i have use it ofc
JUST ASSUME
^ Valorant is more sensitive on ploss, you wont be seeing it on browsing pages bruh
What ethernet cable are u using
Lemme look it up
when im using the tablet inside it the youtube and etc work's finme
it's charging cable.
xd
Oh...
No fckng shit that its giving packet loss
U are connecting it to a USB A port?
yes
no need to bet he did๐ญ
I am kinda amazed that u r even getting internet connection by doing that
U remember how i said that i was gonna reach ascendant in a month or 2 like a year ago?
That day never came :val_Hampter:
๐ญ๐
ayooooooooo looks whos alive
^ btw fam is on like 4ms ping ๐
git gut
Skill issue on my part ๐
imagine having a 0.004 second latency variation and still not owning everyone
bro there is something called usb tertitaring
The fact that u just decided to search up one day "how to use a charger cable as a ethernet cable"
๐ญ
no
i have brain
i continous do experiemtn
i was just doing a experiment
and found it
i always thought there is a way throuigh which i can use tablet and use network in it
that's why i never found it hard
Yea bro sure
OH
she's dead
can you guys check if my cabinet has ethernet cable support?? and if yes where can i put it in?
Wot
Ethernet port should be at the back :c_yellowthumg:
nah goodnight, see y'all in about 10 years
it's super high now for some reason like why am I getting 5ms ๐ญ๐
it was 4 before
5?!
yeah i get 5ms to my local server, it was 4 before so like I'm crying about it
pls dont leave me with all these wifi problems fam, I am drained
:val_KekwSob:
you take over thanks
I will think about it
Can u solve my area's fiber :val_HelloBro:
Its been 8 hours
These people just don't want to get their shit together
:val_Hampter:
no
I'm will eat it tho
Uh sure?
@Kenji-San hihi are you able to help me with something? lately my game randomly stops working( i see people walking and everything says 0 packet loss ) but i cant move, or my gun gets stuck then after awhile it fixes
I have short video recorded of the issue
any other way to boost the network????
or get stable ping
it might work in packet loss i guess
I usually disable windows HPET since it reduce my latency and input lag which also slightly reduce ping, you can also try updating your windows or wifi driver in your mobo, also disable some windows services to reduce ram and cpu usage. If none of this work i suggest reinstall windows since i mostly do that every months just to make it clean.
Also suggesting using ethernet cable instead wifi for more stable and download speed
what is windows HPET
and how do i disbale it?
High precision event timer
Go to device managee and search one by 1 until you find high Precision event timer
what it does in windows?
It allows more efficient processing of highly timing-sensitive applications, such as multimedia playback and OS task switching. And it's also cause some mem usage in some case

Hold let me turn on device

Yes that one
Just disable
Don't delete

Try restart afte that if see make any different
alright
im playin rn
I have disable to and i got 6.0ms latency with 144hz usually i got 9.0 or 7.2ms
How do u check the latency
I want to check mine
Its prob like 30+ or sum shit
Cpu latency it should be like that in game setting
Name*
Does it performed better?
IT WORKS
THANKS
See
Np man
is there something more?
There alot in windows service
But i suggest create restore point before doing this if there something happening
But for me it make my ram and cpu usage down almost drastically
im already using custom os
so it's already optimized
and having minimum service's
i just have 85 proccess

That's good how much ram and cpu usage with custom os?
0%
Want see mine?
but im using google chrome with many tabs
yes?
Hold on let me find the pic
i have all my load on cpu
so it spike sometimes
if i would have gpu
my cpu usage would be 0% almost all the time
Here

This is official windows 11
nice
open performance tab
I managed make it to 17%
and send pc
It has i5 12450hx and rtx 2050 and 24gb ram ddr5 4800mt/s and 1.5tb ssd nvme total
yo mate what version of windows exactly
Newest one
24h2
ooh ty it looks cool
I have been doing this since 14 i even do this on my own personal computer
Np
yeah that's why cpu has low usag
my whole pc is depended on cpu
that's why
i would be on windows 11 too
but this tpm and etc issue
that's why im not upgrading
It's okay bro, there still few months left before windows 10 end of support hope you get new pc soon
