How would I set up an obfuscated bridge on osx via homebrew? Thank you.

My apologies. My router can produce up to 866mb per second, so it should be fast enough. I’ll just see what happens.

I am running it off a wireless connection so could that have something to do with it?

Again, as you were previously told, the issue isn't speed, it's how many simultaneous connections the router can support.

Here is an idea, try running it as a bridge and see if you are able to get everything working that way,.

Or you can just setup your relay on a VPS or Cloud Instance.

What would be your advise for not forever being stuck with an unstable relay? Thank you.

Please read people's replies before asking the same questions again:

Perhaps you should run a bridge rather than a relay.
Or get a better router.
Or run your relay remotely on a cheap VPS instead.

There  are no warnings with the tor software regarding the maximum network connections. Perhaps it is my router (A Netgear Orbi Wifi Router, all wireless);. I’ve noticed that my router does sometimes drop my connection then bring it back randomly so you might be right.
 
According to my research https://kb.netgear.com/31097/How-many-devices-can-my-Orbi-system-support
, the orbi router does have a maximum amount of devices it allows to be using it’s connection at once, depending on what they are using it for. I am wondering, how could I edit my torrc to only allow the number of connections my router would allow and still eventually gain respectable status?
Sorry, that's not possible.

You can not modify your torrc file to limit the number of connections.
