Default Need help w/ slow connection (data inside)

i plucked the following questions from this thread, and hope with my answers someone might be able to help. my connection is painfully slow (with .mpg files and 6 hosts i get up to 90KB/s d/l - but single-source files are almost always <5, most often 0-3 .. VERY rare occasions 40.

i also notice people are getting pathetic upload speeds from me - and would like to help frustrated others who want files from me too!

1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98) XP Pro
2. What firewalls you have? Sygate
3. How much ram? 512 MB
4. Hard Disk space available? 28 GB
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) cable (~3.5 KB/s)
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Netgear WGB511
7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)? home
8. What version of Limewire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. 4.8.1 - 1.4.2
9. Who is your isp provider? comcast
10. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. first try (but problem the same as before recent addition of router)

** had given limewire full access in sygate, but not via advanced settings. went to advanced and 'act as client - act as server' were both checked (for both netgear and limewire) as was 'allow ICMP' - there are no values entered (i'm now in over my head when going beyond what i thought was full access with a basic check)

** XP firewall is not enabled

limewire won't allow copy/paste of bug report (how do other people do it? typing all that or allowed in pro version or...?) but here is some data (don't know what's important...)

connected - true
ultrapeer connections - 3
acting as shielded leaf - true
active uploads - 1
active managed d/l - 2
active HTTP downloaders - 2
rcvd incoming this session - false
shared files 617
guess capable - false
rcvd solicited UDP - true
simpp version - 7
port stable - false
TWT capable - false
last reported port - 4692
external port 6346
IP pongs rcvd - 197

i've had computers for 20 years, but am am new to cable, P2P, router.. not technical and this area is completely foreign to me. in other words, i'm not an idiot, but i'm an idiot.

thanks for any help!
