Network Switch

I'm looking at getting a 10 gigabit network switch. I only have 3 devices that could use that speed right now but I do plan on upgrading things over time.

Any recommendations?

You do face issues running a regular middle/guard relay. My IP is tainted from overzealous sysadmins looking up Tor related IPs and seeing mine because middle relays are public knowledge. I am banned from a lot of places for simply being a middle relay.

Thanks for the correction. It's a shame that sysadmins balcklist middle nodes too, since they won't see any TOR traffic originating from your IP address anyway.

Really? That's so odd, I thought as long as you're not running an exit node, you should be fine. TIL, I'll have to check my ISP's policies before setting one up then.

Your ISP doesn't give a fuck, it's not legal trouble. It's just overzealous sysadmins blocking anything that seems sus. I am permanently banned from most SoMe, for example, for having abnormal network activity but none of it is illegal.
