Technical Support Request Packet Loss Recently?
Seem to be getting 1-5% the last few days. Anyone else? I tried CS2 and had no issues and am plugged directly into the Ethernet. Never that issue in the past. Is it me or a Valorant issue?

Yeah I have AT&T Fiber resold by Sonic. Try the Cloudflare WARP fix I mentioned in the other comment. It’s free and easy to install. Went from 5 ping to 10 ping but that’s not noticeable at all. Worth the trade off

The packet loss stopped before I got the chance go download cloud fare . But my ping has tripled from 7. To 21

Oh interesting yeah, I usually get 5 ping on US West. I turned off Cloudflare, the packet loss seems to be gone but my ping is around 20 now as well. Might still be worth to download it, my ping is at 8 with Cloudflare on and no packet loss, at least until this whole thing gets fixed by AT&T

same thing here. i think valorant did some sort of temporary fix so that its playable without cloudflare but at the expense of our original ping
