Re: [tor-relays] Is a relay on mobile broadband possible inAustralia?

[Keifer Bly]

Thanks for the  info. Unfortunately running a relay with this setup is probably 
not the best way to go due to complications like this. 

Try installing the tor relay software on a computer and running the relay from 
there, then you shouldn’t have any hardware related issues.

Using a port scanning site no common ports appear open so there may be some 
translation going on out of my reach.

Again it is a sim card in a phone from which the 'net comes to a RPi via wi-fi.

[Keifer Bly]

In the torrc file, type QRPort then a space then the port number you want to 
run your relay on.

If you haven’t, make sure the port you choose is configured for port forwarding 
on your router (or firewall if your using one). In some brands of router, I 
know apple and Netgear made routers, the port may not be blocked, but not 
configured for port forwarding which is required for relays to send and receive 
information to and from the tor network. To make sure this is not the issue, i 
would recommend creating a router / firewall rule to allow port forwarding on 
which port number your trying to run your relay on. Cheers.

Thank you,

It is a Raspberry Pi tethered to a cellphone with bulk data and fair speed 
which is much faster than a landline and modem would be. Telstra guaranteed " 
nought bytes/sec ".

How? Go on...


The torrc manual says this.
ORPort [address:]PORT|auto [flags]
Advertise this port to listen for connections from Tor clients and servers. 
This option is required to be a Tor server. Set it to "auto" to have Tor pick a 
port for you

Does that mean ORPort myapparentip:Auto ? 
ORPort Auto is rejected.

The tor relay software requires a computer (not cellphone) OS like Linux or 
macOS, the software will not run on a cellphone. It’s also recommended you have 
an at least decently fast internet connection. 

In short, running your relay off a computer and ISP internet connection is far 
more likely to work. Do you mean it is the cellphone company that is supplying 
your internet connection?

If your ISP  or cellphone company is charging based on how much data you are 
using in a certain time, running a relay will be very expensive for you I am 
sorry to say. I would absolutely recommend you instead try to run your relay in 
an area where the ISP charges based on how much speed you purchase (which is 
pretty standard in the US).

That they were not summoned is scandalous.A LAN network is illuminatedThe collective Riseup provides communication infrastructure and has supporters around the world Photo: reutersYou have to imagine it this way: the police are at your doorstep. House search. Why? You are a member of a club that collects donations for Google. And on a blog calling for protests against an AFD party, there's a Gmail address as a contact - so you know who runs this blog?Of course not. Just as little as the members of the association "Onion Friends" need to know what exactly happened, except that the provider is not Google, but Riseup. It is questionable that the members will be brought to witness the appeal as witnesses. The fact that witnesses are not summoned, but armed police searched their homes is scandalous.For the decision of the Bavarian police, there are several possible explanations. None, however, suggests a particularly constitutional self-understanding of the authority. Actionism could have been one reason - because no one was successful in identifying the blog's authorship, the homes were unceremoniously searched by cumbersome people associated with the trial.For the Bavarian police that would be one of the more flattering explanations. Because documents of the association and other organizations located in the searched rooms were confiscated on a large scale, the victims suspect another purpose of the measure: to learn more about the activists themselves.It would not be the first time that alternative rooms are searched for flimsy reasons. And since the G20 summit a year ago, the repressive measures against left-wing infrastructure have increased significantly, especially in smaller cities. As long as the security authorities in this case do not contribute to the clarification, they must submit to the suspicion of deliberate intimidation.

I had the problem on one of my relays because I was running "apt-get
update && apt-get upgrade" which had the update part return an error
because the tor-experimental-0.3.3.x source now returns a 404, so
upgrade was not called

Re: [tor-relays] tor-relays Digest, Vol 89, Issue 49

[dave levi]

 first, Thank you all for you answers and help.
let me make it a bit harder. now, im running a relay which is Guard and
Exit relays.
i have defined in my relay(the server that's running the relay in /torrc
file) to be "AllowSingleHopExits 1"
and set in my computer that running the TOR(in /torrc file) with the 1(one)
hop to:
"ExcludeSingleHopRelays  0"and
"AllowSingleHopCircuits  1"
so now every thing needs to be ok right?
but, still its not working

I would recommend to work with your ISP to figure out the root-cause
instead of trying to workaround it without knowing what is causing it.

I'm not sure if the feature linked above would help you.
