One thing to know about packet loss
Valheim only reports real latency and loss on Steam P2P connections - join by Steam friend invite or the server browser, with Crossplay off.
On Crossplay and direct IP / LAN connections the game itself provides no loss figure, so the
panel shows N/A instead of inventing one. N/A means "this connection type does not provide it";
-- means "no reading yet".
When you are hosting, the figure is the average across all connected players.
