I'd suggest chances are you are acting as an Ultrapeer (UP); ie: helping others to connect. You yourself connect via another UP & if you're using the free version of LW then you'll be connected to 3 UP's or the Pro version to 5 UP's. One way to check is to view your monitor window. Another I think is to do a bug test. Being a UP is good for the network. If you really don't wish to be a UP then you can disable it thru Speed options.
