High Ping Question
Hey for some reason i keep getting insane ping spikes when playing valorant, My internet is fiber 1gb speeds and it only lags on valorant, any ideas on why and how to fix it? My ping is usually like 10 but will jump up to the hundereds or thousands making it unplayable at times.

when im on my desktop my internet is fine but when im on my 1600 laptop its practically unplayable
my desktop is older so i typically use my laptop for better performance
when it's in the thousands, that's usually packet loss, at least from my experience
if you're playing on wifi, you're a lot more likely to get packet loss
if your laptop has an ethernet port, try using that
is there a way to fix it without ethernet... my desktop doesnt use ethernet either
if you're having more packet loss on your laptop then your desktop, there could be a lot of reasons why
you could be farther from your router than your desktop or your laptop has a worse wifi adapter
my laptop has wifi 6 when my desktop just has a netgear one from like 3-4 years ago... and ive tried using it on my laptop and still bad
and its only in val
could also be the motherboard or cpu
do you happen to know the specs for both your desktop and laptop?
My desktop is an i7 7700 with 1070 I believe. And my laptop is i7 14th gen with a 4060
not a latency issue then, but technical

Wym?
