 Its pretty simple once the service is up and running you can connect either via lan or tor to your relay 
 Would you mind helping me out with a step by step if you have a moment? I’m not familiar with setting up LAN or tor 
 Sure where are you at now? 
 As in what I have completed steps wise? Start9 installed, bitcoin core fully synced and did some other connections with electrum server with sparrow. But other than that, working on btcpay server and nostr relay. 
 Ok that sounds already pretty good, now with the nostr relay once downloaded from the marketplace you gotta fire it up which means at that point you are able to connect your start 9 relay to your nostr client by using the information provided within properties 
 Yep, it is downloaded, same with LND and etc. The thing I am confused in how to do is the following info: 
    
1. Ensure your computer or phone is running Tor: https://docs.start9.com/latest/guides/device-guides/ (THIS LINK IS NOT WORKING)

2. In Nostr Properties, copy your Nostr Relay Websocket URL (e.g. ws://<address>.onion), and paste it into your Nostr client relay list.

*Note: there is also a Local (e.g. wss://<address>.local) URL is included in Properties. We do not recommend using this interface except to sanity check that your relay working in certain cases. No one will be able to access your .local URL except you and anyone else connected to the same LAN. 
 Ok clear so maybe you gotta tell me from where do you want to connect from eg phone (android or ios) or macOS or windows desktop? 
 Or what else did you mean you are having difficulty with? Have you setup LND and alby hub
