<body><div>Hey toer, I actually removed the Bandwidth Rates per another suggestion.</div><div><br /></div><div>Just sucks I can donate more to the TOR Network, but because other people abused the advertised bandwidth settings now it is what it is.</div><div><br /></div><div><a href="https://puu.sh/DAw2V/aeb55530e8.png">https://puu.sh/DAw2V/aeb55530e8.png</a></div><div><br /></div><div>Also I guess the fact that most of the traffic across tor is http/https It's not ever going to "observe" a whole lot because it's quick small packets of data.</div><div><br /></div><div>I moved it to another IP and put it on 443 / 80 so maybe that will help cause firewalls and such. It's also directly on a public wan IP now, so firewall/router complications.</div><div><br /></div><div>Config in Nyx: <a href="https://puu.sh/DAwXD/39269fba87.png" style="font-size: 12pt;">https://puu.sh/DAwXD/39269fba87.png</a></div><div><br /></div><div>Chutney Results - <a href="https://puu.sh/DAwYD/131f6f1959.png" style="font-size: 12pt;">https://puu.sh/DAwYD/131f6f1959.png</a></div><div>Ran a 30 MB Test 10 was fast and 100 kept crashing</div><div><br /></div><div>2nd Run: <a href="https://puu.sh/DAx0v/4c73a8b661.png" style="font-size: 12pt;">https://puu.sh/DAx0v/4c73a8b661.png</a></div><div><br /></div><div>So looks like my hardware can only handle about 100Mbps Full Duplex, but that's still way more than 9 :-D</div><div><br /></div><div>Guess we'll see what happens.</div><div><br /></div><div>I didn't see if anyone answered if I need a separate IP or if I can create another tor instance on different ports but on the same IP, to increase the load I'm handling.</div><div><br /></div><div>Thanks,</div>

<div class="plain_line">There might not be much you can do about this: Comcast has slow peering</div>
