You need to edit your general preferences - set the parameter for how often you connect to 1 day or more, you'll get more work units.

Could be a number of reasons. Most likely it's due to your 'Connect to network every...' setting. What is it set at? Try setting it higher.

That's your clue. You have it set to have only .001/day worth of work at a time, which is a minimum of 1 unit. Set it for 3-4 days.
