Microsoft Windows operating systems use the PuTTY program to establish SSH connections. If you experience connectivity issues, you can adjust PuTTY's configuration to help keep connections alive. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Start PuTTY.
2. Load your connection session.
3. In the Category pane, click Connection.
4. Under Sending of null packets to keep session active, in the Seconds between keepalives, type 240.

   Note

   With this configuration, PuTTY sends a packet to the server every 240 seconds (4 minutes) to keep the connection alive.

5. In the Category pane, click Session.
6. Click Save.

• Connect to your account and monitor the connection. If it still drops, gradually decrease the keepalive interval until the connection is stable.
