Hi !
Here the problem, I have a bad internet connection. Stable but every time something is downloading in background, my lantency goes up...
To fix this issue while gaming, I usually turn off the wifi and the only thing connected with ethernet is my computer. So i have no problem, and i can play valorant with my stable 35ms latency BUT every 5-10min, it downloads/uploads a big amount of data making my latency goes up to 300-400ms.
It's very frustrating and made me lose a lot of rounds because of that. In any other game I play (csgo, apex, rocket league,...) it never goes upper 0.5 Mbit/s while here i've got:
- Valorant: 1.2 Mbit/s
- Valorant anti cheat: 2.8 Mbit/s (wtf?)

I don't know what they are downloading/uploading, but can't they set a buffering system or do that between games or something?
This is very annoying for people with bad connexion
