Hello,I am developing an IOS application that requires the use of a server. I use my MacBook Pro to connect to this server and since a month now I am facing technical difficulties. The problem occurs when I try to use the ssh protocol to connect to my remote server using the 'ssh' command in the terminal. The command stalls for a while and then returns with "port 22: Operation timed out". This problem seems to only be occurring when connected to a WiFi network.Although there could be multiple causes to this problem, I suspect it to be a bug or routing setting in the mac OS software. I did several tests to determine what causes this problem. The tests include using different networks and different devices.-- Tests --Wifi network 1 (Work):MacBook pro: Operation timed out.IPhone 7 (Termius app): Operation timed out.Lenovo (windows): Instant successful connectionWifi network 2 (Home):MacBook pro: Operation timed out.IPhone 7 (Termius app): Operation timed out.Lenovo (windows): Instant successful connectionWifi network 3 (public):MacBook pro: Operation timed out.IPhone 7 (Termius app): Operation timed out.4G celluar network:IPhone 7 (Termius app): Instant successful connection---------I cannot explain this behaviour and I tend to conclude that the connection does not work when using any mac system on a wifi network.Other points that are worth mentioning.- Before like a month ago, I never had issues with this at all. Everything worked fine. I also can't think of any significant change that might have caused this.- I can perform http requests successfully at the same ip address.- I tried using keys instead of passwords but yielded no results.- Every once in a while, the connection is successful. I estimate this i about 5% of the time.- When rebooting the mac, the connection seems to work more often for a short period of time. Approximately 5 min.- I face similar connection issues, when my VoIP app tries to establish a peer-to-peer connection outside of the local network. This could be coincidence and not related at all.What could be the cause of this? Any idea's or suggestions. Hope you can point me in the right direction.Kind regards,Daan.
