Is the AC87R/U traffic monitor really this inaccurate?

I ws checking the Traffic Monitor for the first time today and the readings are absolutely bonkers.

I tried disabling NAT acceleration, but it won't let me. If I choose 'disable' from the drop down, it just stays at 'AUTO'.

Does anyone else see this behaviour? There's no way I'm transferring that much data, especially for outbound packets. When I took the above screenshot, none of my devices were even doing anything on the internet.
 
I'm running the 5587 beta and did a reset both prior to flashing the beta and after. All settings were manually entered after.
 
Here works OK, I am afraid that under your specific conditions/settings traffic monitor does still not work correctly ...
 
I was having a problem with my cable modem last night, so I did a full factory reset on it. After reseting the cable modem, I'm not longer getting strange values returned in the traffic monitor. It appears to now be showing real values.
