Hi Alan,
Family indicates they're all operated by the same person. as you run both TheCosmos and MilkyWay, they are in the same family.
Please declare so in the .torrc.
Thanks!

In the UK it depends what ISP your on. Virgin Media gives out static ip's as far as i know. BT (what i'm using) is dynamic, the ip changes every time the router reboots. It reboots when it detects a fault which is normally between 2-4 weeks on average.
These are my relays:
TheCosmos (running on home ip (raspberry pi)) https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/38B330302F1FB79ED11A468FC9DEA8 960B842B57
MilkyWay (running on Digital Ocean) https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/E856ABA2020AA9C483CC2D9B4C878D 8D948B0887
Does anyone know what the 'Family Members' does and should my relays have this set?
In Germany, it's quite usual that you have a dynamic IP and unusual that you have static IP. Not just a few relays are located in Germany. It's not just a question of frustration of owners of dynamic IP relay, but also a matter of bandwith waste. If Tor cannot handle dynamic IPs properly a lot of bandwith is not used. And bandwith is something that the Tor network can not get enough of. _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
