Meaning of all Red Icons on top right

I see a bunch of different red icons on the top right corner when there is some connection issue like packet loss etc. What do those different icons actually mean?

@asukojo @ThanksALOTT  Hey, it's not quite a fulll breakdown, but the studio did make up this handy little chart




I'm no network engineer so I'll just link some general resources on each of these that cover some of the basics of what the icons mean.

      If you're seeing packet-loss often, then you may be having some issues with your connection. Follow the steps in this EA guide to troubleshoot your connection here.
