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.
