Might be MTU? Can you try what happens with `find /` ? If it freezes then, too:
On both machines: ping -s 1252 -D $remote_IP if it works, increase by half the way to 1472, try if it still works: ping -s 1362 -D $remote_IP etc. If it does not work, you half the distance to the previously working one, e.g.: ping -s 1362 -D $remote_IP << works ping -s 1417 -D $remote_IP << does not work then next: ping -s 1390 -D $remote_IP If you use IPv6, you need to decrease the starting/end value by 20 and use ping6, i.e., as min 1232 and as max 1452; If the hosts cannot reach each other directly (NAT), it depends on the path which addr to use; Would need traceroutes between the hosts then. The assumption would be that you do have an MTU issue on-path there, which is not correctly signaled. This only hits as soon as the packets get a size larger than the MTU, e.g., when typing dmesg (or find /).
