Try to issue the `traceroute' command to your real IP over the Internet 
from a Linux computer and specify packet length 1452. If it fails, then 
maybe a misconfigured router (e.g. CISCO) on the way has a lesser MTU 
set and large packets sent by SSH do not get through. If your Internet 
service provider indeed has this problem, then "MSS FIX 1452" command 
issued on a CISCO router may fix it.
