-By running a Tor relay you can help make the Tor network:
-

-* more robust against attacks

# Bandwidth and Connections
-A non-exit relay should be able to handle at least 7000 concurrent
-connections. This can overwhelm consumer-level routers. If you run the Tor
-relay from a server (virtual or dedicated) in a data center you will be fine.
-If you run it behind a consumer-level router at home you will have to try and

-relays (>=100 Mbit/s) usually have to handle a lot more concurrent connections
-(>100k).
-
-It is recommended that a relay have at least 16 Mbit/s (Mbps) upload bandwidth
-and 16 Mbit/s (Mbps) download bandwidth available for Tor. More is better. The
-minimum requirements for a relay are 10 Mbit/s (Mbps). If you have less than 10
-Mbit/s but at least 1 Mbit/s we recommend you run a [bridge with obfs4
-support](https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/PluggableTransports/obfs4proxy).

# Considerations when choosing a hosting provider
-If you have access to a high speed internet connection (>=100 Mbit/s in both
-directions) and a physical piece of computer hardware, this is the best way to
-run a relay. Having full control over the hardware and connection gives you a
-more controllable and (if done correctly) secure environment. You can host your
-own physical hardware at home (do NOT run a Tor exit relay from your home) or in
-a data center. Sometimes this is referred to as installing the relay on "bare
-metal".
-
-If you do not own physical hardware, you could run a relay on a rented dedicated
-server or virtual private server (VPS). This can cost anywhere between
-$3.00/month and thousands per month, depending on your provider, hardware
-configuration, and bandwidth usage. Many VPS providers will not allow you to run
-exit relays. You must follow the VPS provider's terms of service, or risk having
-your account disabled. For more information on hosting providers and their
-policies on allowing Tor relays, please see this list maintained by the Tor
-community: [GoodBadISPs](FIXME).
