I have a dynamic IP from my ISP. Is that going to cause issues with my relay?
Yes, other relays don't like your relay changing ip's all the time. You should try to get a static ip somehow, ask your isp :) On 08/16/2014 10:00 PM, IceFish ThreeTwo wrote:

Unfortunately my ISP only provides static IPs for their business accounts, which, even if in my price range, I can't get at my home because of zoning. My IP hasn't changed once since I got the service and I think I've kinda locked it in with my router. But if it does switch say once every 8 months, how big of a deal is that?

That's not a big deal, if it's once every 8 months. But every day, that would be a problem. If you keep running your relay for 8 months, and then an ip change, i think it will be back at normal speeds in like 5 minutes On 08/16/2014 10:04 PM, IceFish ThreeTwo wrote:

Alright thanks. Yeah it's a "dynamic" IP. I bet they just say that in case they have to change it for some reason.

dynamic ip addresses are fine, especially for bridges.[0] relatively lower bandwidth is also great for bridges.[1]
