Connection Problem

The ‘Connection Problem’ icon starts pulsing when your client hasn’t received any feedback from the server for a period longer than your interpolation delay. If this icon is consistently pulsing, it may indicate a connection problem and can cause erratic behavior in-game.

Packet Loss

The ‘Packet Loss’ icon will start showing when packet loss is detected(duh!). This again indicates a connection issue and can result in erratic game behavior if it goes on for an extended period of time.

This Indicator or Icon appears when the client has not received any feedback from your lobby server for an extended period of time and that a disconnection is likely.
