Ok. I'v done some tests:

1.
local computer: ssh-1.2.27
remote computer: OpenSSH_2.5.1p1
Both are connected to internet without NAT, local by 2Mbits HDSL, remote by 1 Mbit HDSL
command watched: watch -n 1 tc -s class show dev eth1

2.
local computer: ssh-1.2.27 (the same like in first case)
remote computer: OpenSSH_2.5.1p1
Both are directly connected to local havy loaded 100Mbit network
command watched: watch -n 1 w

And... sometimes it is posible to observe this behaviour after ~10-30
secound and sometimes I can wait for more than 20 minuts without any
result :(

3.
local computer: ssh-1.2.30 (but I'm not sure if this is 1.2.30)
remote computer: OpenSSH_2.5.1p1 (the same like in first case)
Both are connected to internet without NAT, by 2Mbits HDSL
command watched: talk to friend... after some typed chcracters session
hanged. Then I pressed space and 5 new lines appeard.. 

Today I have connected from the same local computer to that remote
computer and.. I have not been able to observe my problem :((



I understand that it is vary hard to find the reason of my problem but it
realy happends to me! ;-))
