I ran the speedtest on my VPS which gave the results below: [...] My Bandwidth results are averaging around 1.5mbs to 3.0mbs via the Tor Globe Stats page.
Can someone tell me how to increase my network bandwidth based on what I am capable of uploading and downloading. I am allocated 2TB of bandwidth per month from my VPS
According to https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/A290A9E71ADFC2FB1C80E64EF851A4B9054501... , the relay has only been around for some short time and is still building up speed; it is currently at 4.5 MByte/s advertised bandwidth.
It can take up to roughly a month before a new relay reaches its 'final' throughput levels. See https://blog.torproject.org/blog/lifecycle-of-a-new-relay for details.
4.5 MByte/s per direction means that it will reach 2TB within less than three days. You don't want that; you should actually throttle your relay to be around for some more days. I would suggest something like 800 KB/s and a cap on total amount of data per month, which means it will be pushing data for ~15 days per month.
