I've been using my raspberry pi over SSH for quite some time now, and still one of the most annoying things that I couldn't fix is that everytime a certain amount of text is displayed, the connection will freeze and I have to disconnect myself.
Most of the time I use putty, because I work a lot with my windows PC, but the problem also happens with a default session with linux mint, so I guess it's the raspberry's problem.
First of all the problem is seemingly random, sometimes it happens when I call apt-get update
or I paste some commands, very often when using nano, but it happens 100% of the time when the shell is filled with programs that use a "GUI shell", most notably the connection freezes everytime I try to open raspi-config
.
I have a relatively slow connection with the raspberry, but it is able to handle a VNC connection so it should definetely be fast enough.
