Connection problems with League of legends?

[Shinsoo]

Sorry for late response I was helping run/shoutcasting a $3000 dota 2 trini tournament (sponsored by flow) over in the local dota group.Look out for nearby LoL events.

So you are having issues  with league. . And it will be fixed eventually. For now however you have some options. These are the noted things that have worked thus far.


I will arrange based on threat level . (Note if you are not tech savvy ask us to help. Remember we have a FLOW VIP GAMER TECH SUPPORT GROUP info below. )

Basic Lag and ping issues : Using wtfast http://www.wtfast.com/promote.aspx?APID=2719
(Choose League of Legends, choose a chicago or florida server for best results)


Minor connection issues ; Changing your DNS . You can use google dns or open dns. Some people have fixed all their issues doing this alone .

Major connections issues : Inability to login or load in after champ select
^ You need to use a decent vpn. Vyprvpn by golden frog works well but remember to turn off other programs is they will use up your free trial data.
Avast vpn also works well. 7 day premium free trial.
https://vyprvpn.com/refer?ar=2fsvbksgvc6nm_1 (use chicago server)
https://www.avast.com/en-us/secureline-vpn#pc (use Miami server)
^Also for some people logging in with avast is troublesome . If so start league of legends first, log in and then connect to avast.
https://www.hotspotshield.com/ is another vpn gaining some traction
(Thanks to Angelo Khan for suggesting )

League support staff after about a week of different test logs and test, told me the issue is with the way Flow routes the data to their server they need to fix that. Can you pass that on to the techincans at flow?

This is true. Thankfully, a VPN, as OP suggested, would use different routing and fix the disconnects. The only trade off would be slightly higher latency.
 (And I doubt Flow is going to change their routing based on a few customers complaining about a single game, sadly)

It's not only a single game. Having lots of problems playing Xbox One and my old Xbox 360 not even connecting to Live. Can't even play my Gears of War without a VPN. The packet loss is real. Flow could use a routing change IMO, can't compare to Digicel or Massy in terms of it. Not sure how much pressure that is though.
