Incoming connection is someone/a host/or another computer/ip trying to connect to your computer through the TCP protocol, or whatever other protocol theyre trying to use. Outgoing connection is when YOU are trying to connect to a server, or a site, or a PC game that requires an internet connection. A packet is a small piece of data sent across the internet. If you have any other questions email me.
