did you check your firewall/router-appliance for Static Port Mapping?
I have a fairly low-end consumer-level Netgear router and I don't see an
option for this.
Furthermore, I can warmly recommend the Browser Plugin from
SnowFlake. Setup in seconds and still modest traffic without any
network setup.
I have the Firefox snowflake plugin installed on my laptop and it
appears to be working. I installed tor-snowflake proxy package on the
desktop machine that used to run my tor relay, as it is connected 24/7.
It, too, appears to be working, but the log files suggest far fewer
connections and less data transferred than the tor relay it replaced,
likely at least partly due to the restricted NAT it must use. I'd prefer
to run the tor relay, but dealing with getting my IP address
blacklisted was getting tiresome.
At this point, I've resigned myself to running snowflake and accepting
the lower performance as the price for not having to deal with the
constant IP blacklisting of running a tor relay. Snowflake at least
allows me to contribute something to the tor network.
