Not necessarily... Could be normal internet splatter/debris being stopped by your firewall... Your firewall log could help you here...

Could be your system communicating with the router, or vice versa. If you have any other systems connected to the router there will be normal traffic between all systems on the LAN. You could always run something like Ethereal (http://www.ethereal.com) and do a packet capture to see what is going on.
