Account-specific ping issue – Need help
🔧Technical Issue🛡️Vanguard Issue🎮In-game Issue
Hello everyone, I’m posting here because I honestly don’t know what else to do.
I’ve been experiencing a serious ping issue on my account (Madrid server, ISP: Orange).
My ping starts normal (40–50 ms), but after 5–10 minutes in a match it jumps to 300–500 ms. If I don’t restart my PC, the game eventually disconnects me with VAN 185.
Here’s the important part:
Same PC
Same WiFi
Same server (Madrid)
Friend’s account works perfectly (3 full comp matches, no spikes)
My account spikes every time
Other games like Battlefield, GTA Online, Fortnite, and CS run perfectly fine. This only happens on my Valorant account.
I’ve contacted support 4 times already. Either the ticket gets closed, or I wait 4 days without response. I’ve done all troubleshooting steps (DNS flush, IPv6 off, network reset, Vanguard reinstall, etc.).
At this point, it really looks like an account-specific routing issue.
If any Riot staff or someone with similar experience can help, I would appreciate it.
Thank you.
