It's also extremely unlikely that you have something like that.

I was asked about this system.
* comcast(my ISP) connected via metal wire cable to Arris phone modem connected via ethernet cable (yellow) to the workstation tower port.
* no routers.

If your computer is directly connected to the internet, then there is always going to be some level of network noise happening. I'm surprised at how low it looks from your charts. Even if your computer is not doing anything, there are all sorts of scanning going on and probably ARP requests from the upstream gateway, etc.

Is your computer's IP address in the 192.168.* or 10.* ranges? If not, then you're directly connected. Since you mentioned seeing login attempts before, you most likely are.
