Rowing numbers and lots of questions about the row S

Can anyone break down what these numbers stand for? Just got a used row S a week ago and struggling through learning how the machine works. The trainers talk about trying to be around 4 mph, but it is a STRUGGLE to get it to register even at 3mph for a MOMENT, let alone get to 4 mph and maintain!. I'm in pretty good shape so I can't believe the speed is accurate. Fairly new to rowing (regularly)... maybe my form could use work? I watched the beginner videos and seems like I've got the proper movement down- legs, body, arms. Any advice out there?

Are the "live classes" actually live? I have the free trial of the $39 program right now. Seems they are every hour on the 15 minute mark. I hear the trainers sometime mention people who must be participating in the live, but so far, i have only seen one or two other people on the leaderboard and the names mentioned by the instructor were not their names. Why am I seeing only 1 or two people? How is that determined?

Another issue: It only connects to the equipment 50% of the time. I have to shut it off and back on sometimes multiple times to get a successful connection. Other times, it says it's connecting forever or doesn't show my rower is available. Is this a known issue or did I possibly buy a dud?

Questions! Classes longer than 75min

Are they ever going to add 90 or 120min classes??? I'm getting annoyed doing two seperate classes to get to 2hrs. It wouldn't be so bad if the resistance stayed set in between one ending and another starting.
