Your bandwidth is too low. Guards must be in the top 25% of the network
by bandwidth, and that's currently in the mid 2MBps. Your node is right
on that cusp, so it's going to continue to have a flickering guard node
flag.

Any pointers about why my relay is flipping between guard and not guard?
There are 8 authorities, and 4 think your relay should be a guard.
Whenever a 5th joins them, your relay is a guard, when it doesnât, your
relay isnât.
See the entry in
https://consensus-health.torproject.org/consensus-health.html
There are a number of factors involved in guard selection:
* Your bandwidth seems to fluctuate, which could cause the guard flag to
fluctuate as well. Unfortunately, the guard flag then causes your
bandwidth to fluctuate. So itâs hard to tell what the cause is here, and
whether the relayâs Guard flag is in some kind of bandwidth-driven loop.
Have you looked at the bwauth votes for your relay?
* Your uptime is ok (for the last month).
* There could be other factors.
Give it a week or so to stabilise, or, alternately, limit the bandwidth
to stop it fluctuating so much.
