Description

In connecting to several devices without a problem, but there are 2 that are giving me trouble. This is the command im currently using to connect:

New-SSHSession -Port 22 -ComputerName X.X.X.X -Credential $SSH_Cred -Force -Verbose

But i get stucked at this part until timeout:

VERBOSE: Using SSH Username and Password authentication for connection.

But if a try to connect to the same device, from the same machine using putty, i can do it without a problem. Can somebody help me?

Regards!
