How do I fix the Error 54 in Valorant?
1. End Valorant and Vanguard processes and set the vgn service to Automatic

2. Flush DNS and reset the network settings
After flushing a DNS, it’s a good idea tocheck Valorant pingand ensure that servers are reachable and that you don’t have any latency issues.
3. Use a VPN
Whether the Valorant servers are down or under maintenance, in most cases, they won’t all have that status. For example, if the servers in the U.S. are down, you may still access the ones in Europe and the other way around. However, when your client starts, it will reach the closest server to you.
Of course, you can circumvent that by using aVPN for gaming. You just set a new location in the VPN and the game will pick it up. For instance, if you’re in the U.S., you can choose a server from Europe.
That’s all about fixing Error 54 in Valorant! You may also reinstall the Riot Games client and the Valorant game, but only as a last resort.
