To become and Ultrapeer, one must have activated that option in the Options/Preferecnes and then wait for Lw to connect to enough Ultrapeers in order to get promoted to that status.

Be careful though.

Just because ultrapeer has the prefix Ultra doesn't necessarily mean that it's good to be one:
being an Ultrapeer on a 56k modem will slow down not only you but also the leaf users that are connected to you.
I suggest you enable Ultrapeer capabilities only if you have a relatively fast connection as Ultrapeer will give you more results but also use up a small fraction of your bandwidth (which, in the case of a 56k modem, isn't expendable)
