Digiweb satelite users

    I have a satelite connection being routed through a wireless hub. There are 5 people using the connection but only two heavy users the rest just check email every once in a while.

    One computer has terrible trouble connecting, I had set the two heavy users on static ips in the begining as letting the pcs request their own ips (off th satelite modem) was hit and miss. Yesterday one of the heavy users just wouldn't connect to the internet, can't ping the machine but it says it's on the wireless network. I've tried setting it back to recieving it's ip automatically and it says it's connected with limited conectivity.

    The only thing I changed was adding another computer to the network so they could access the internet and I'm wondering if the digiweb modem will only allow a certain amount of users on the network at a time.

    I've gone over an over the settings and can't find anything wrong.
