(Turns out some blacklist operators don't know (or don't care) how tor works.) It might be worth using a separate external IP address, if you can get one. > On 13 May 2017, at 03:27, tor <tor@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > I use Verizon Fios.

It may depend on the capabilities of your router. A well-utilized guard node will have thousands of open connections. It can overwhelm some consumer-level routers. One way to find out... You may also find that tor exceeds Verizon's peering capacity per user to Europe, or some other network link capacity. The tor network will also measure your relay, and if it is slower than other relays, it will tell clients to allocate fewer connections to it.
