You should notice an increase gradually in several days, providing you have everything set up properly.
One thing I have noticed in the past is making sure the firewall is set up so TOR can be accessed. That will cause you a slow down. Being that you are a former TOR server, I would just wait it out and give it several days for the others to know your out there and will get used to accessing you. I am a little concerned tho about the DNS hijackings, which is not good. This may or may not also be interfering with the server working properly. Might consider looking at changing to a different DNS server or changing IP providers. With that being said, maybe someone with more experience can give you some ideas on how to go about and correcting the possible DNS issues. Welcome back as a TOR relay.
