What is a packet?

In most, but not all networks, rather than transmitting data in small pieces such a single character at a time, data will be sent in a larger piece referred to as a packet. The size of the packet is a tradeoff between network sharing, speed and error detection and recovery. Standard Ethernet uses a packet size of about 1500 bytes, while Wi-Fi defaults to a bit more than 2300 bytes.
