Hello,
I just set up an exit node (PrivacyFoundation on the list), and while I've got 5mbps up, it only advertises as 80-90kb b/w available. That's not at all accurate, and I think it's meaning the connection is ending up way underutilized, since I'm not seeing much traffic on the b/w graph.
How do I change the advertised b/w?
Thanks!

"Leave it running" is the best answer. Relays start out with small numbers in the consensus, and the directory authorities measure them and advertise larger numbers for faster more reliable relays.
I notice that PrivacyFoundation was hibernating (unavailable) recently. That will hinder its bandwidth growth.
