Where are you stuck?

at this line of code
Public Sub New(ByVal header As packetHeader, ByVal data As Object)
_header = header
_data = data ' Says that it cannot convert to Byte
End Sub
Public Shared Function Serialize(myPacket As Packet) As Byte()
Dim fs As New MemoryStream
Dim formatter As New BinaryFormatter
formatter.Serialize(fs, myPacket) ' here is fails because it cannot Serialize for something is not specify but i can find out why ;;/
Return fs.ToArray
End Function

Not clear. Are you using available TCP implementation, sockets or TcpClient/TcpListener? Everything is done easily...
