Firstly, you multiplied by 8 to get bits/second, whereas AWS is showing
bytes.
Secondly, I *think* AWS shows total transferred in 5 minutes, not rate in
bytes per second. If I'm right, then
AWS 1.34GByte per 5 minutes => 4.5MByte/sec => 36Mbit/sec
Thirdly, you have summed over all interfaces, including virtual ones. Try
selecting just the external interface.
