Hello All,
I just bought a Raspberry Pi.. Wanted to setup as a Tor non exit relay.
I have read so many instructions online on how to set it up but i am facing issues with opening ports.
I am using a NetGear Router and require your inputs with the same.
Also is static IP mandatory for setting up a relay?
Thanks, TorZilla11
What model of NetGear do you have?
A static IP is not required. You may need to setup a Dynamic DNS if tor has issues with your dynamic IP.

I don't know in which country you live but an exit relay with your private internet connection might bring you in legal trouble.

I did not say i want to setup an exit relay.
I am looking forward to setup a Non-exit relay

Just install Tor:
sudo apt-get -y install tor
and edit the torrc file: nano /etc/tor/torrc
make it a relay by adding this content (add your values and data): ORPort <port> Nickname <your nickname> ContactInfo <your email> ExitPolicy reject *:*
*If you are behind NAT, make sure the ports are properly forwarded to your raspberry pi. Use a static internal IP for the raspberry pi so the port forwarding rules will remain active in case of a reboot.
Note the raspberry pis are ok (if the internet connection speed is also good) but cannot handle as many concurrent Tor circuits as a real server would. If your internet bandwidth is capped, maybe try running an obfs4 bridge on the raspberry pi.

Let me add to this since I have a raspberry pi 2 tor relay:
First off, I run debian jessie on my pi2, but pi2 supports debian wheezy. Make sure you harden your SSH to attack. You'll want to dedicate as little ram to graphics as possible. You also want to have AvoidDiskWrites and CPUNums in your torrc file as well, the details of which can be found in the tor debian manual.
As for performance: My stock Pi2 averages about 30-40% load when it bursts to 25Mbit/s, which saturates the connection. Thus, scaling somewhat linearly, a Pi2 overclocked could probably handle a 50-100Mbit/s connection. But you'll want to monitor things closely in the beginning since there isn't much wiggly room on the Pi2. For example, my image of debian jessie had a irqbalance service that had a memory leak and was eating all the ram, which plagued my stability in the first few weeks.
Also, you want a quality power supply, and, if it's a hot environment and/or overclocking, a heat sink. Security and stability are the most important, and the Pi2 can easily handle a residential connection as a non-exit node, I only wish I had the connections to utilize my hardware.

Hi All,
I think we are deviating from the issue here.
I have installed Tor.. Everything is good on my Pi 2
All i want to know is how do i open ports for Tor on my NetGear DGN1000 router
Thanks, Bunty

Hi TorZilla11,
A dynamic IP will be no problem for Tor. What you will see (at least I do with my relay, also a Raspberry Pi [0]) is losing the HSDir flag for four days with every new IP.
Cheers, Jannis
