Hi All,

So given that I am running my relay off of a home internet router (a Netgear Orbi Router) I am considering switching to running an obfuscated bridge. I am not sure I will do this, but have noticed that when my relay (torland at

http://torstatus.blutmagie.de/router_detail.php?FP=db1af6477bb276b6ea5e72132684096eee779d30) Gets a lot of use,  this can cause my computer I am running it on to get hot (It is a mid 2011 iMac with 8GB Ram running Mac OS High Sierra). It does not happen often, but does from time to time. I have also noticed that not often but occasionally when my relay is running, my router will lock up either for a few minutes or until I restart it. I do not know if this is related to my relay (I checked with Netgear support and was told the router  is capable of about 60,000 simultaneous connections, 65,000 being the absolute maximum).

The ISP is Charter Communications, and the internet speed generally alternates between 500-800 kb/s. I will maybe try running a bridge to cut down on the maximum number of connections I get, and have three questions. I have been running a public relay off my listed ip for some time but have a Dynamic IP so it should change from time to time.

1. What would be the most helpful PT to run? Obfs4 is the one I would most likely choose, and what countries are these being used in the most?
2. I looked on the tor website and could only find the instructions for installing PT on Linux at  https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/PluggableTransports/obfs4proxy. Is there currently a way to install the PT for Obfs4 on Mac OS High Sierra (this would be installed via homebrew)?
3. Would it be possible to keep my current relay fingerprint?

Thanks very much.
