Really need some help here, just cannot find the answer.
I've been running 2 middle relays for a year now, from a home/business IP, one DSL and the other cable. Only problems were brief and IP induced all has served the system well.
I recently attempted to add a 3rd relay on the same cable feed as one of my others, but there is no way the ORport will connect. I have DMZ'd the static address, forwarded the ports, changed the ports - the ORport just will not open. And yes I realize diversity is tightened, but I'm trying to help all I can on my budget. First - CAN there be two relays on the same dynamic address (different port numbers) ? How? Do I need some form of DNS service to help?
Relay 1 is Linux 3.2.0-86 and Tor 0.2.6.9. Relay 2 is Linux 3.16.0-30 and Tor 0.2.6.9. The DMZ'd relay worked until I had to forward 9001 to the 2nd, then it quit. Uptime was normally 40 - 50 days until a kernel update, or something major. Both are old laptops on battery backups that never have power down. Router is an Archer C7, latest firmware.
