So, yes :)

My fingerprint is C0417071C3754885296F4A5935AC1BC1CABDBC31. I see all
authorities give me "V2Dir" and "Valid", but only three (longc,
bastet, moria1) give "Running".

I use my ISP-provided fiber modem. Maybe it is expiring the
connections when idle. Is there a way to request a heartbeat to be
sent?
