As i mentioned earlier, TCP/IP is the protocol which takes care of
your segments and packets on the way from sender to receiver and vice
versa. At this layer there is no way to extend the tolerance by the
application layer (ssh/freenx).

One thing i had in mind is, that under some circumstances, ssh times
out due to missing data gone through the line. For example if you open
a ssh connection and dont state commands for a while.

This can be solved by the following settings in the ssh-configuration:

Edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config

as mentioned in man 5 sshd_config

ClientAliveInterval
             Sets a timeout interval in seconds after which if no data has
             been received from the client, sshd will send a message
through
             the encrypted channel to request a response from the
client.  The
             default is 0, indicating that these messages will not be
sent to
             the client.  This option applies to protocol version 2 only.
