Solution
Ping spikes can definitely be frustrating. Here are a few things you can try to stabilize your connection:
- Reset Network Settings: Run these commands in Command Prompt as admin:
netsh int ip reset,ipconfig /release,ipconfig /renew,ipconfig /flushdns, andnetsh winsock reset. Then restart your computer. - Check Firewall: Make sure VALORANT is allowed through your firewall. You can find more details here.
- Close Background Apps: Ensure no other applications are consuming bandwidth (streaming, downloads, uploads, etc.).
- Use Ethernet: If you're on Wi-Fi, try using an Ethernet cable for a more stable connection.
- Gameplay Servers: Make sure you're connected to the recommended server for your region in the VALORANT settings.
- ISP Issues: Sometimes, the issue can be on your ISP's end, even if other games seem fine. Contacting your ISP can help identify or resolve these issues.
