External Address is Top Client for Bandwidth Usage

On the Bandwidth Usage tab under Logging & Reporting / Network Usage, my Internet IP, or External (Address) user/host, is always the top talker.  Like about half my total bandwidth usage is attributed to my external interface rather than to an internal host that actually initiated whatever traffic was seen on that interface.  I'm sure there's some amount of traffic, like downloading firmware or pattern updates, that is rightfully attributed to the external interface.  But that shouldn't amount to GB's of data every day.  Should it?  It's more like some of my internal hosts' traffic is being associated with the external interface and it's hard to get an accurate read on how much each internal host is really using.  Does anyone else see that behavior or know how to change it?
