[tor-relays] multiple tor nodes on one router? was first using bridge then become bridge

[Lorenz Kirchner]

Hi everyone,

so I received no hint as to how or whether to pursue this thought... i shall
find other sources of information I just started reading the manual, would
you believe it..

I have a new question now, I currently have set up number of tor relays on
my router which are loadbalanced using squid... in the hope to increase
throughput and perhaps achieve increased anonymity by sending requests for
one site through different tor routes...

Is that advisable or even effective? My feeling is that the connection is
somewhat more reliable than with just one tor relay.. and following on with
this could one of these relays be set up to connect to tor via a bridge and
then pass directory info on to the other relays running on the same machine?

Kind regards,
Loz
