wrong network metrics in export mode (csv and influxdb)

Before filling this bug report, please search if a similar issue already exists.
In this case, just add a comment on this existing issue.

Describe the bug
the network values Rx/s and Tx/s differ between the export mode and the web server/standalone mode.
For example, in an iperf3 test in web server mode I get the full load of approx. 900mbit.

In export mode, regardless of whether I export to InfluxDB or to a CSV file, I get incomprehensible values. InfluxDB and Grafana interpret the data as follows:

Expected behavior
correct output in export mode

Environement (please complete the following information)

Hi @dareios1995

please can you run Glances with the following option before running Iperf:

glances --stdout network

What's the result ?

Hi,

Here is the output before the start of Iperf3:

I have limited the data to the adapter br0 and only let glances run for a few seconds to maintain clarity

Many thanks and best regards

Do you use the bytes_sent_rate_per_sec and bytes_sent_rate_per_sec field in your Grafana dashboard ?
