Hi, I need help with Valorant. Every time I try to play, I always get a "connection error" message with "VAN-81," and I’m immediately kicked out of the game, which causes me to go AFK.
I’ve already tried the solutions from YouTube, including restarting the Riot client, enabling the VGC service, reinstalling Vanguard, changing my DNS to Google and flushing the DNS, and adjusting the firewall with "Allow an app through firewall," where I’ve already enabled Riot for both public and private networks.
Now things are even worse—just trying to open Valorant immediately gives an error message like the one in the picture. Has anyone experienced something similar? I’d really appreciate any solutions or suggestions.
