Yep, sorry about that, um, let me try and answer but bear with me, I am not a computer wiz. I think the connection is cable, sattelite. Like I said I have windows xp, it's my home computer and no one else should be using this able to access this computer from the outside. When I first downloaded LW I did all the stuff they told me to do to let them through the firewalls and a few days after that I kept getting this pop up alert that said some outside source was trying to use the same ip address, or something like that. I haven't seen that pop up again for about 4 days or more. If I didn't give you enough info please let me know and if so when you ask please use the most basic language you can think of, half the time I have no idea what anyone is talking about when they ask me things about computers. I am still learning. Thanks again and I hope I answered all of your questions about my set up. Mands
