How to Fix Packet Loss in Rocket League and Valorant

Rubberbanding: The Gamer's Nightmare

Packet loss is when data gets sent but never arrives. In game, this looks like teleporting, hits not registering ("reg"), or your character skating around.

Step 1: Is it YOU or THEM?

Use our Jitter & Packet Loss Test. If you see 0% loss to our servers, but 10% loss in-game, the game server or the route to it is the problem.

Step 2: Check Your Hardware

• Bad Cable: The most common cause. Swap your Ethernet cable.
• WiFi Interference: If you are on WiFi, switch to 5GHz or 6GHz. 2.4GHz is too crowded.
• Overheating Modem: If your modem is hot to the touch, it might be dropping packets. Reboot it and ensure it has airflow.

Still having issues? It might be Jitter masking as packet loss.
