Not sure why a downgraded openssh would improve things for you if this is the issue, however I faced the same issue as yourself and it was caused by mDNS trying to do a reverse lookup on the host connecting in to the affected server, ultimately causing the SSH connection to hang. |

Check that the order of sources on the hosts line of you /etc/nsswitch.conf[1] file on the server that you are having issues _connecting to_, not the desktop that you're connecting from. |

Mine is: |

|
| 22 |
`hosts: files dns mdns4_minimal mdns4` |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Note `dns` is before `mdns4`. |
