Another useful indicator: while the connection is in the hung state, run
"netstat" on both ends and figure out which line corresponds to the hung
connection.

If the "SendQ" entry (on the server side, probably) is non-zero and
non-decreasing that indicates that TCP can't deliver the packets, in which
case it's probably an MTU black hole.

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
