One thought. Try making sure you are running the newest version of the tor 
software. I say this because I know directory authorities recently started 
rejecting relays running older versions of tor. Another thing I might check if 
possible is if your router has a limit for how many simultaneous connections it 
can handle as if your router has a limit in this, this can cause issues with 
running a tor server as tor can require hundreds of connections at once.
