This is a fairly common issue, often caused by your remote shell waiting for some process that had started to stop. You can kill ssh by sending it a return followed by a "~." (tilde period) Or you can background it by sending a return followed by a "~^z" (tilde ctl+z) then background the ssh process as your normally would by typing "bg" and hitting enter. -Mike
