Plug for mosh, the mobile shell. If you can ssh, you can probably mosh. https://mosh.org/

Mosh is your friend when mobile SSH is an essential requirement: https://mosh.org

You may be interested in https://mosh.org/ as an alternative to ssh

Love mosh, back when the connection was bad I had it aliased to ssh. Somewhat relevant: if you actually a need to take your shell mobile, check out my tmux plugin that allows you to quickly transfer your tmux session to your phone without any app, using websockets and a QR code: https://github.com/bjesus/muxile

mosh isn't an alternative shell, it's sort of like "rsh" or "ssh" except designed for mobile... and using SSH for authentication and session setup.

What's mosh?

Edit: Managed to find the right string of words to google: mosh = Mobile Shell

https://mosh.mit.edu/ may be of use to you as an alternative to ssh

Come on, SSH and Telnet? That's ludicrous. It's a job for https://mosh.org/

Nice, thanks for sharing. Since you mentioned SSH - make sure you use MOSH. If using an iPad https://blink.sh/ is an absolute gem.

ssh, mosh

Freaky | karma 1387 | avg karma 2.74 · | 2014-02-21 11:32:47+00:00

Don't forget mosh exists if you're commonly in situations where a normal ssh session is unreliable: http://mosh.mit.edu

Mosh (https://mosh.mit.edu/) might work better than TCP-based SSH connections for such a setup.

ianai | karma 10241 | avg karma 1.69 · | 2018-11-19 02:48:58+00:00

Mosh also makes it possible to have an ssh client running on a mobile device and still use the mobile device as a mobile.

mosh? It's a replacement for interactive ssh.

taude | karma 2371 | avg karma 1.99 · | 2019-02-27 05:47:17

Thanks for this. Trying now. I always assumed this was some form of SSH/Mosh client.

theshrike79 | karma 10442 | avg karma 2.58 · | 2024-05-28 06:26:10

Mosh is an essential requirement for any kind of mobile work over ssh, combine it with tmux and iTerm2 tmux integration and you can work on a remote server without even knowing it :D

hayd | karma 789 | avg karma 2.11 · | 2022-12-01 19:19:39

mosh is supposed to be pretty good for ssh latency: https://mosh.org

mfontani | karma 1481 | avg karma 4.61 · | 2021-11-02 13:32:42

If only mosh had ssh key forwarding, I'd use it more :/

raesene9 | karma 5638 | avg karma 3.93 · | 2016-04-26 17:01:37

have you tried Mobaxterm for this? I've not used its mosh support but like it as a general SSH client...
