If your relay restarts it’ll temporarily lose the guard flag or if it has slower than average bandwidth it won’t be granted the guard flag.

Hi,

I am running an Tor Node nickname 3sKtjMnoiZAIGz07 from ip 59.179.28.221.
I was given guard flag briefly on 20th Oct and flag removed on 22 Oct. My advertised bandwidth also dropped from 2.29 MiB/s to 1.79 MiB/s unceremoniously. 
The consensus weight reduced from 992 to 810.

I have checked but did not find any discontinuity on the network end or any connections dropped. 
Will is be possible to confirm as the the exact reasons for loss of guard and drop in both advertised bandwidth and consensus weight.

Regards,
Loopback team
