[X2Go-User] Unwanted session suspension on an unreliable network

When using the Windows X2Go client on an unreliable network, I regularly receive the message “The connection with the remote server was shut down. Please check the state of your network connection”. I am forced to reconnect to my X2Go session, but a PuTTY connection to the same server typically continues to work without interruption once the network comes back a few moments later.

I assume that X2Go is actively checking the state of the connection, in a similar way to OpenSSH’s ServerAliveCountMax/ServerAliveInterval configuration options. Is there any way to switch this functionality off in X2Go?
