18 packets / sec when each port is being opened (meaning not in an ongoing TCP Connection, but for example in a port scan) is a good average

In one day (quickly checking calculator) there are only 86400 seconds. Do a quick sum and find that your system is supposedly sending out over 11,000,000 packets a second average. Now there is some hardware that could deal with that - but I do not think that a laptop could possibly do this (someone correct me if I am wrong ?). Or even 11,000. So first check your packet totals. I do not think that it they can be correct.
