ssh hangup when working via router

I've discovered that my ssh connection occasionally hangs up when I am working through my WIFI router. And ssh works fine when the PC is connected directly to WAN.

This might happen because router drops the connection from its NAT table due to inactivity. To aid this, edit (or create) ~/.ssh/config and add there few lines:

Host *
ServerAliveInterval 60
