Some ISPs may force you to use their router, like AT&T in some parts of the US who forces 802.X authentication to use VDSL/FTTH that is only spoken on their router.
But your uplink probably is crappy if you have cable, DSL, or fixed wireless.

torix@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx:I need to move to a new router, which, unlike the old Verizon home router, doesn't have a quick DMZ host to which I attach the tor telay's local ip address. So I think I need to do port forwarding, and for that what rules do I need? My torrc config has: ControlPort 9052 ORPort 8443 DirPort 8080 So I forwarded 8443 and just in case, 8080. But the number of my connexions kept dropping, so I put it back in the DMZ and it started getting new ones again. Trying to figure out if I screwed up the config gui, or if I need to add other ports. Did I miss a port?Forwarding the ORPort and DirPort (if you set one) is all you need but home broadband uplinks frequently are not made for the amount of concurrent sessions a tor relay usually has to handle. So failures might still happen even if you setup the port-forwarding part correctly. _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
