My MacOS Terminal keeps losing connection to other server

I use my macOS Catalina Terminal app to connect to my home Ubuntu server. I also use putty.exe which is a Windows app.


My Mac Terminal app loses its connection to the Ubuntu server after X time of nonuse. Not sure what X is. But my Windows OS doesn't lose its connection at all. And yes, we're talking about them being connected at the same time.


Have looked in Mac's preferences but I can't find any stay alive type settings.


Anyone have any experience with this?
