Before we start, try switching to a wired connection since it’s usually more reliable. Restarting your router can also help.

1. Use a reliable VPN

Most often, using a VPN will pretty much always solve lag spikes and issues in games, as well as deal with common connection errors such as packet losses.

In the case of League of Legends, one great product worth trying is Speedify, a VPN service that makes your online experiences faster, more reliable, and more secure.

Besides, even when you’re not playing LoL, you can still use SPeedify from streaming content, safe browsing, and more, all at speeds that make you forget that you are using a VPN in the first place.

2. Check your server’s current status

4. Change to a public DNS

5. IP Release/Renew and Flush DNS
