Fix 2 : Make changes to DNS
Internet-connected devices are identified by their IP addresses. DNS servers minimize the need to learn IP addresses.
It’s possible that Valorant’s download will be stalled at 0.1 KB due to network troubles. Consider making a DNS change on your computer or router to see if that resolves the issue.
The configuration page of your router can be accessed after logging in. Keep everything else the same, but configure your primary and secondary DNS to any of the following:
- 1.1.1.1
- 1.0.0.1
- 8.8.8.8
- 4.2.2.2
If nothing else helps, try restarting your computer. Or you may contact your Internet Service Provider.
If you still need help, file a ticket to Riot Games and describe your issue in detail.
