Disconnecting and reconnecting every 50 seconds (2020 Jan. 2-present, NA)

Swaggy MC Flabby··5 votes·3,215 views

Just a few days ago my game started acting weird, I can still play games... but only 5/6th of the game. Every 50 seconds the game seems to disconnect me and then I am reconnected within 10 seconds. I have since reinstalled League through the "Hextech repair tool" and nothing changed. I don't know what is wrong because I don't think it is my wifi. My reason being for this is that I can stay in a discord call through the entire game while I'm disconnecting and my voice call won't suffer at all.

There are some interesting things that I have encountered though, While the reconnecting bar appears, I can still move on my own. I found this out while playing in a custom game and forced myself to run undertower after my game "disconnected". I have also come up with an issue that when I get back, sometimes my abilities just won't work. I can ping them ready but until I take damage, they won't be usable. Those are the only unique things that I have found, but I think it just helps to suggest that it is not wifi and more likely a bug.

This isn't my first issue with league, in the past few months I have had problems where my game would go from 34 ms to 200-400 ms and that would last for about two seconds before it went back down. That issue would happen infrequently throughout the game but never absent. I am looking for people to add to this conversation so that I may see that I'm not the only one, or that there is a fix.

Thank you for reading this, and I hope that this can be resolved soon.

I actually have the exact same issue. It's reassuring to hear that others are having problems as well. I was thinking it was something on my end.

the same thing is happening to me, and i don't know what's wrong or how to fix it. my wifi is bad, but i don't think it's the cause of all of this. i'm gonna try to initiate full repair or something and see how it goes. wish me luck!

Mine isn't every 50 seconds - but multiple times a game. Stinks :(

Sorry to hear that, hopefully they will fix it soon. It's frustrating to be unreliable in a team fight due to disconnecting.

This is happening to me too! Glad to know I'm not the only one as well. My discord works everytime I disconnect so I assume that my wifi isn't the cause of this. Hope riot fixes this issue :(

I'm experiencing the same issue since the 24th of January I tried several things

reinstalling league - changing my DNS-server-address - trying it with another WLAN adapter (since I don't use LAN) nothing seems to change for me and I can't find anything helpful about this problem

I really enjoy playing league for several years and don't play much else so this is a crucial problem for my gaming experience Hopefully, someone will hear us out anytime soon Can't wait to actually be able to play this game again as I used to

I have a Mac though so I wonder if there is something I can do. The video posted below is in Windows.

Weird, it happened to me the other day and it was annoying. I thought it was the WiFi but my internet was working otherwise via phone, tablet, etc.
