The details vary enormously from protocol to protocol, but the basics are the same for all of them. A stream of data is split into packets, the packet has a header which contains (amongst other things) the destination for the packet. The network uses the destination address to deliver the network to the correct destination.

What is Filtering in computer networking?
Filtering is the act of deciding which data packets are allowed to be sent and which packets should not be sent.Packets that are not sent are said to be filtered.Filtering decisions can be made by any device that routes, generates, or receives packets, but generally packets are filtered by firewalls.HTH,Gdunge

How does a firewall reassemble a data stream that has been divided into packets?
The receiving computer uses each packets identification number to reassemble in the correct order the packets that make of the data stream.
What is stop wait ARQ system?
Basically Its a transmission system that sends packets of data across a link and then waits until it has received signals back from the recipient to show successful transmission of all data packets in that window (set size of a number of data packets). Any packets that don't receive a successful transmission flag are resent before the window progresses to the next set of data packets.
What is the purpose of sequence number SEQ equals in TCP data packets?
