I'm not sure your ping test proves that the network isn't dropping packets. ping sends rather small packets by default, and you could have a situation where only larger packets are dropped. Have you tried asking ping to use larger packet sizes to try to narrow this down?
I'd also suggest using something like tshark on both ends to see exactly what packets are being sent and received. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1713248 Title: pubkey auth hangs on high latency networks To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/1713248/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
