Freezing midgame constantly and horrible ping spikes
Hi, recently i've started to notice that my game randomly freezes in the middle of a game for like 5-30seconds at a time, where my entire screen is just frozen and when it unfreezes i usually end up teleporting to some random place I was never at previously, making the game unplayable and not enjoyable at all. I believe it is a result of ping spiking so high because when I queue with my friend he tells me that I have invisible ping (indicating super high ping to the point where i dc) when my game freezes. I do not know how to fix this and have tried searching online and if anyone could give me guidance on how to fix this that would be greatly appreciated. This issue did not always happen as i've been playing previously with no problem and everything perfectly fine but just last week this started happening and I have no idea why.
On top of this, starting today it is so bad to the point where my game entirely shuts down with a connection error message and it forces me to restart my entire game (i forgot to screenshot this but basically it freezes, then tells me i got a valorant connection error and the only option is to exit the game and I have to close valorant).
