Routing issue
Been having this issue since last year not sure what could of changed, I've tried everything from contacting my ISP and they have been no help saying it could be riot routing issue which didn't seem believable. Virginia servers used to be 20 and Georgia was at max 30 but now it jumps to 30-40 on Virginia, if possible to resolve this i would greatly appreciate it. @lyra @Kenji-San

Good morning, if anyone is able to help me this week with the weird ping spikes on Virginia that would be great. Itβs been an ongoing issue since last year and itβs just getting worse with the routing.
@lyra
i think they are busy atm
give them a bit
oh yeah Iβm just putting it there
If they donβt see it thatβs all
Not trying to bug them just trying to get them to look into this since itβs getting worse moving and shooting often.
yea its bad
;tracert
Traceroute
1. Open CMD
2. Type and run the following command, replacing
[IP] with one of the server IPs from the list below:
tracert [IP]
3. Take a screenshot of your Command Prompt showing the results and share it here.but the chosen one will fix it
or his little gang
lmao okay
Got you
Loading up my pc

restart your router and/or get eth
its weird on georgia i feel no stutter lag or anything but when i play on VA it stutters all to hell its like im on 20 ping on georgia
i already did this morning since we had wifi maintenance with xfinity
Try restarting the router again, and then run that command right after
okay give me one moment

:CB_illyastare:
get eth
what is eth?
ethernet
kinda new to this
ah okay
im on ethernet as of now
its a wired connection
:blink:
ive replaced the ethernet cables as well and still to no avail
wait fr?
yes
then get a new router or sum shi
I did that as well
the problem is your the connection at your home atleast
20ms to your router is way way to high
u should have <1
its literally in my room next to my pc lol
ive done speed tests nothing was the issue on my side so it doesnt make sense why im having this issue
the issue is on your side
any ideas then?
ive replaced this router 3 months ago
its the newest xfinity router
wait
can you try
ping 10.2.0.1 -n 10 and show a screenshot of the summary at the end?okay let me try
I believe i did it if not correct me on it

ping 10.2.0.1 -n 10
not tracertohhh
i didnt understand

does that seem normal?
this still stands
ah
jeez
idk what it could be we had technicians come out and do it
let me see something

1ms right?

what did you do before running that?
i uninstalled something blocking interference i guess but it still high on valorant
VPN ?
yeah it was old vpn i didnt know was still on this
but my issue still presists
whats your issue ?
major stuttering on virginia servers
take ingame graphs so we know please
how do i do that exactly?
like you mean shooting and movement?
there are options in the game client to monitor network graphs enable them go to practice and when it jump your latency I mean it should show up on graphs take a screenshot of them and post it here
its mostly ping spikes and stuttering in game i never had 30 plus to 40 ping on virginia i had consistent 20 before.
0kay
you had 20ms before to VA ?
yes
since i started valorant 5 years ago
it changed last year
for some reason
you playing from MA ?
yes
im assuming Massachusetts correct?
yeah my best from the traceroute
alright that looks fine I think, let me know when you get those graphs jumps we can check out other stuff meanwhile
kenji
okay got it
what the fuck is going on with clouflare
which graphs should i use
oh i see i missed your comment with network graphs give me a moment
how would be know π
They are having maintenance now. I said that already. βΉοΈ
this what you mean?

yep cool so whats the problem ? looks like you are sitting on 30-34 latency
used to be lower right ?
yes
anytime i get into fights i ping spike out of nowhere and feel stuttering it doesnt feel stable on va servers but when i play on georgia its stable even on higher ping that doesnt make sense.
im on 42-46 on georgia when it used to be 25-30 max it has gone up alot i would say.
mb
it jumped to 62ms
goes up and down
did it reflected on the game graph ? the jump
yes
in network rtt avg
it seems its a routing issue since ive seen people in my area with similar issues when i did the research
but people that are on va servers have been affected
from Comcast ?
yes
fill this up please fam https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd9c4AbpNLxwxlVbtEgVQbdjgyAKOTllug5TSSPKPvm_Na5wA/viewform
Google Docs
Riot Games - Latency issues form
In order to do a deep dive into your latency issues we need more details from your ISP, please go to https://ifconfig.co/ and fill this form with your details
it will give me a better idea
thanks!
okay got it
thank you for helping me ive been trying for close to a year getting this resolved.
I am seeing 27ms average from MA in Comcast towards Virginia
so theres something fishy here bruh
on my side or?
i submitted the form.
if i had old clips i could show you i was on 20 ping consistently
no most likely your ISP changed some routes
thank god you noticed
yeah they messed with it bad
I mean having +10 sucks for sure but there are people playing on 80 latency fam
thats exactly what it feels on va
i literally skip at times
every game
its crazy georgia feels like im playing on 20 but va feels literally like 60-70
can you post a screenshot of the latencies in the menu ?
like when you selecting servers
yeah
ill show
thanks

any reason the routing changes??
its gotten to some points where it will disconnect from the game when the ping spikes
I will be in a business meeting @Kenji-San so if you need any more information about my isp just ping me.
kenji is chosen one

Routing is correct here from Riots side, there is nothing imidiate we can do to improve the latency, I need to reach out to Comcast to check out their own routing based on your traceroute, maybe they can improve their own route better. Needs more checks. So dont expect any changes anytime soon unfortunately.
You know he is the goat when he contacts a full-on internet provider for you π₯Ή
Okay understood hopefully it gets resolved
also Iβm assuming this will take longer than a week maybe even a month? since comcast is bad with routing
