Description
My code works when connecting to switches with up to date firmware however ones that are running older encryptions every time i try to createshellstream SSH.NET throws "Failed to open a channel after 10 attempts.", right now upgrading firmware on the switches aren't a possibility so need to work around it...
Left gives the channel issue, Right works perfectly fine, any way to fix/workaround this?

Done means identifying a compatible workaround or correction for the affected encryption configuration, with the channel opening successfully on the reported devices.
