Tested on two Umbrel instances, version 1.7.3, tor is **unusable** , stuck at: Bootstrapped 30% (loading\_status): Loading networkstatus consensus On one Umbrel I went ahead with “Factory reset”, hoping it would fix it. But the issue persists. So even without any apps installed yet, with the only two containers: ```auto CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES d2d16f574bb1 getumbrel/auth-server:1.7.0 "docker-entrypoint.s…" 7 minutes ago Up 7 minutes 0.0.0.0:2000->2000/tcp, [::]:2000->2000/tcp auth e20fb7f03b1c getumbrel/tor:0.4.7.8 "tor" 7 minutes ago Up 6 minutes tor_proxy ``` ```auto root@umbrel:~# docker logs -f -n 20 tor_proxy Jul 09 18:10:59.000 [notice] Starting with guard context "default" Jul 09 18:11:00.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 5% (conn): Connecting to a relay Jul 09 18:11:01.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 10% (conn_done): Connected to a relay Jul 09 18:11:01.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 14% (handshake): Handshaking with a relay Jul 09 18:11:01.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 15% (handshake_done): Handshake with a relay done Jul 09 18:11:01.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 20% (onehop_create): Establishing an encrypted directory connection Jul 09 18:11:01.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 25% (requesting_status): Asking for networkstatus consensus Jul 09 18:11:01.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 30% (loading_status): Loading networkstatus consensus Jul 09 18:11:01.000 [warn] Received http status code 404 ("Consensus not signed by sufficient number of requested authorities") from server xxxxxxxxxxxxxx:9001 while fetching consensus directory.

It seems this is a general issue, the tor version that umbrel uses is obsolete. More info in this issue: [Bundled Tor 0.4.7.8 (EOL) can no longer bootstrap. All Tor connectivity broken (Lightning channels offline, onion services dead) · Issue #2189 · getumbrel/umbrel · GitHub](https://github.com/getumbrel/umbrel/issues/2189) Hope this gets an emergency update, its quite bad… ---

Bit of an oversight there XD. What a disaster! \*\*Temporary\* Fix is now in [here](https://github.com/getumbrel/umbrel/issues/2189), and you cant restart after applying it. ---

I also have the same problem I even made a backup and pre-installed umbrel! I’m going crazy, nothing worked on tor anymore! speriamo aggiornino presto! ---

I also wiped one of my umbrels for this. Can’t wait for the bitcoin resync 🤣
