VAN 102 - And getting suspended (then unsuspended) for no reason
Guys, I have a really annoying issue;
For several weeks almost every day while I'm playing valorant, it kicks me out in the middle of the game with a VAN 102 error code. When I reconnect, I play max 5 minutes more and then it kicks me out again saying that my account has been suspended due to third party usage (I'm too scared to even launch spotify when valorant is open anymore), but its no help, still same thing happening.
After like 5 minutes of suspension message, I log back into my account and its all normal, no suspension at all, and the entire game is cancelled for no reason. This happens so often, again my PC has no third party software, I even deleted both vanguard and valorant reinstalled few times, doesn't work.
If anybody knows how to solve this who has faced the same issue before, please help me

update your drivers
and delete vangaurd
my drivers are up to date
I can try deleting vanguard again but I did that before too
uninstall it with revo unistaller
Only vanguard right?
yes
Ok ok I'll try thank you
Press Windows Key + R, type services.msc, and press Enter
send me a screen shot of it
sorry about the language

I can't see vg tray thing here
so its deleted I guess
oh u havent installed it yet
yeah I will soon
once you installed it send another cc
ss
ok ok
Restarting pc first?
or I send you ss immediately
when was the last time you updated your nework adapter
ye restart your pc

yes
Like physically or its driver
driver
Idk really, can I find it in my pc's official website?
Go to your Device Manager, find your network adapter, and select Update driver.
what motherboard do you have
Lenovo
All up to date
ok then try to lunch valorant
I mean it will launch
I have will have to test if it works during games
once you got that erorr again lmk

Sure I will some time
it says enable?
Yeah there is an option to "start"
or enable
Should I make it automatic or what
enable it
and make it automatic
did both, I hope it solves this
works ?
@momo @Mahan

same thing happened again
it doesn't work
ao you have good pc ?
I have an "okay" pc
open task manager
pefromance tab
and show ss

sorry about the language
are you on wifi or cable ?
wifi
connect to cable
if I could I would
:DekuFacepalm:
okay
stay in lobby or shooting range for like 10 minutes then start game
but what does that have to do with anything
on some machine vangaurd and val need a bit to run all the files and stable connection
it take sometimes in some machine
well let's say the connection error did not happen in the first game
but happened in the second
just give it try
doesn't that mean all the files were run
wont lose anything
yeah ok
also could be connection issue
so better to connect to cable
but how does that cause that suspension message
for third party usage
I don't get it
you got temp ban for 1 minute or 5 minute ?
yeah always something around that
ahhhhhhhhh\
yea its internet connection problem
but its not related to being afk or anything
it just suspends me for no reason
The thing is
your internet is not good enough to connect vangaurd to server so game think you dont have vangaurd
When I'm in the game I have only 8 ms
then it kick you as thinking you trying to cheat
but not stable
buy cable and you will be fine
:Deku_Dead:
i didnt read your post good before so i could tell you to do it before
this common issue
need stable internet connection
so all I need is an ethernet cable?
yes
great..
There isn't a really good spot to connect my laptop to an ethernet cable in the house sadly
do you have steam ?
yeah
nvm
whats the name and brand of your laptop ?
lenovo
lenovo what ?
ideapad gaming 3
alr
let me look for your wifi adapter
maybe they have update for it
I think I did that before already
welp
then you need cable
but open device manager
network adapter
right click on wifi
deatils
and show me ss
hold on hold on
I'll try to make the language of pc english
no need
i just wanna see the date of the driver
I think I made it

yea
thats too old
um
but when I scan
😀
it never shows me a new update
scan where ?
Like lenovo's website
🙂
what win you have ?
am I doing something wrong
win 10
Press windows key + r
Type msinfo32
Show ss

Secure boot
I also read that somewhere else
What's secure boot really about
Does it limit anything?
You gotta enable it
No
Oh ok then I'll try that
You got discord on your phone?
No
Why though
Hit up to your bios
Download it
Well uh I can't because its inaccessable in my country
:DekuBlank:
vpn
I tried but even with vpn I can't see discord in google play so
Its quite a strict ban
where you from ?
turkey
Merhaba
start vpn
creat new google account
Merhaba xd
then you will see discord on google play
wait you are serious?
Yep
yes
but you have to keep vpn on
ok right now I have vpn on I think
well it requires a phone number so
it will know where I am from
no
just use your number
um ok
wtf
It worked
what you expected ?
I honestly thought I won't see it again
:DekuWeep:

Restart your laptop and hit up to your bios

Yeah I am stuck on a blank black screen for some reason
I don't know why though
Oh never mind
got in BIOS
Ok
Search up secure boot
yes secure boot disabled currently
Enable it
Then save and exit

I can't select it to enable though
trying to find out
Wait a sec
FOUND
now save and exit
Yea

why does it still say off
i have the EXACT PC
:DekuAllMight:
is it a lenovo one
yeah

but I enabled it
hit up to your bios again
Ok
so I enabled that one

Oh wait
secure boot status under it still seems to be disabled
hmm where to enable that too?
wait a sec
oh no way it literally is the same pc
let me get my settings
i can help u
tysm it would be appreciated
Make sure csm disabled
and set user mode to uefi
Not user mode
where to find csm
in boot or startup menu
In boot menu there are;
Fast Boot
USB Boot
PXE Boot to LAN
IPV4 PXE First
is there any search option in there
I don't think so
Do you think I am in the wrong place by any chance
like I should've been in a different interface?
let me try
no need
look for entires name of it
compatibility support module
lemme send all tabs



can u find boot mode or boot priority
No such thing I checked all
or uefi
can u send a ss from boot tab
no such thing related to uefi
only thing here is
Go to config

Show me all option there
you can see the last 2 screenshots
I'll send the rest now
Go to boot
and show me




These are all
Look for reset for reset secure boot key
there is no boot mode in boot tab?

lenovo a bit shitty
yea none
Solution
Just restory factory key and it will work
You sure?
this won't format anything I hope
dont worry
I said yes
but nothing seems to be changed
should I save and exit?
press f10 save and exit
YOO
