Teor,
Please run: tor --verify-config -f torrc before posting a torrc.
That's useful to know.
Now that I've used 'auto' for both DirPort and ORPort I still get 'unable to prove they're reachable' for the ports tor has chosen.
Is it just a waste of time to try to run a relay through a mobile phone's data because the telco is actively blocking a lot of usual broadband activity?
Most mobile carriers use carrier-grade NAT. And then your mobile broadband router probably also does NAT itself.
If you don't have a public IPv4 address assigned to the WAN side of your router, there's not much you can do at home.
You could rent a remote server (VPS) to set up a Tor bridge or non-exit relay. Some of them even have free trials for a few months.
