Learn all things packet here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packet

The answer, as stated below, is that it depends. The smallest a packet is is 64 bytes. On a standard Ethernet segment going through a router (no jumbo frame support) the largest they get is a little over 1500 bytes. Different applications will produce different size payloads which varies the size of the packet continuously. For example, some applications like FTP tend to ramp up to 1200 - 1300 byte packets pretty quickly, other applications like Windows "drag and drop" file transfers keep the packet size rather small, around 200 - 400 bytes.

The size varies -- they aren't fixed. Generally they don't exceed a few kilobytes.
