vr2600 ssh TOS issues
Model :
Hardware Version :
Firmware Version :
ISP :
Like it says, the VR2600 is one of the routers that fails on what the openssh documentation describes as "A problem can arise when you are trying to connect from behind a NAT router using OpenSSH. During session setup, after the password has been given, OpenSSH sets the TOS (type of service) field in the IP datagram. Some routers are known to choke on this. The effect is that your session hangs indefinitely after you gave your password."
A netcat workaround is posted in the documentation, but this is rather silly for a router in this price bracket. My previous piece of junk (router) worked fine!
Is there anything I have missed in the router set-up?
