It could be that your provider has throttled you temporarily.

I don't think so, I get that message on a dedicated 10 GbE link with little to no use except for the exit relay on it.

Also, if his relay publishes it's descriptor, then why Metrics won't reflect that?

It should show it as online, as you don't need IPv6 to be reachable to get the online flag.

Self-testing indicates your ORPort 156.67.111.146:443 is reachable from
the outside. Excellent. Publishing server descriptor.

That looks good :-)

Your network connection speed appears to have changed. Resetting
timeout to 60000ms after 18 timeouts and 1000 buildtimes.

It could be that your provider has throttled you temporarily.

Performing bandwidth self-test...done.

I can confirm that the IPv6 address is not reachable for an unknown
reason. The IPv6 address and flag have been removed from the torrc file
to correct the problem and don't appear in the log at restart, as shown
above. IPv6 should be completely ignored by the DirAuth.

With some providers you get the IPv6 prefix too late¹ and systemd stops tor
because of errors. Unfortunately, I have one of those too.
After a reboot I have to log in and do:

systemctl list-units --failed
systemctl stop tor
systemctl reset-failed
systemctl start tor

That's one reason why I don't have an auto reboot after upgrade but would like
to receive an email from the system. <- @toralf ;-)

¹Even the sysctl settings don't help.
