[tor-relays] Refuse Guard flag

Hello there.
I have been running my (non-exit) relay without issues for some
months. Recently I noticed that my ISP started to reset my IP a few
hours after the node gets the Guard flag, thus making it lose such a
flag (as well as Stable and HSDir). I am not sure if the Guard
flag is the real cause, but it is the only condition that is verified
always and only right before I get a new IP. Is there a way I can keep
my node running with the same settings but preventing it from becoming
a guard, to investigate if the flag is the real cause?
Thanks,

Eldalië

Hrm, what about just asking the ISP why they are doing the reset instead (I don't think what you want is easily possible)

The Guard flag is given after a more or less constant time (or?) - so
I'd not see a conincidence here.
