What would be your advise for not forever being stuck with an unstable relay? Thank you.

Please read people's replies before asking the same questions again:

Perhaps you should run a bridge rather than a relay.

Or get a better router.

Or run your relay remotely on a cheap VPS instead.

There  are no warnings with the tor software regarding the maximum network connections. Perhaps it is my router (A Netgear Orbi Wifi Router, all wireless);. I’ve noticed that my router does sometimes drop my connection then bring it back randomly so you might be right.

 

According to my research https://kb.netgear.com/31097/How-many-devices-can-my-Orbi-system-support

, the orbi router does have a maximum amount of devices it allows to be using it’s connection at once, depending on what they are using it for. I am wondering, how could I edit my torrc to only allow the number of connections my router would allow and still eventually gain respectable status?

Sorry, that's not possible.

You can not modify your torrc file to limit the number of connections.
