They more than likely mean that you have packetloss somewhere on the
path between the two hosts.

So that TCP needs to retransmit the packets.
1, is an indication of TCP retransmitting a previously dropped packet.
2, is an indication that one or more packet prior to this one in the
sequence number space was lost.
