English as a second language, hmm? Very well:
Your network card generates a signal when it receives a network packet and
wants the OS to "pay attention". That signal is called an interupt, and has a
strong correlation with the term "IRQ". You are seeing lots of interrupts
because your router is dealing with lots of packets.
It is very likely that you can improve the way your system handles this load
by tuning your system better, yes. Read "man tuning", and consider rebuilding
your kernel using HZ=1000 or so, and enabling DEVICE_POLLING. You should also
make sure you've got good network cards in the machine...
