I running XP and I have this TD-8810 modem
http://www.tp-link.com/products/product_des.asp?id=42 connected to the
Linksys WRT54R router

While I'm networked in the Local Area Connection dialog box is showing me
receiving 4bps even if the both computers networked are idle, is this 4bps I
receive while I have the computers networked coming from the broadband or is
it just the computer talking to each other?

If the computer is connected to the Router it would be the speed between the
Router and the computer.
If the connection is Wireless than pending on the environment many factor
can cause low traffic.
You did not provided many details about your system, but you should know
that your modem is actually a combo Modem/Router, thus your Wireless Router
should be connected as an Access Point (AP) otherwise you have double
routing.
