Regular SSH won't work if your IP address changes since it uses TCP where sessions are tied to (IP address, port) tuples. However mosh uses UDP and its own session management scheme, so you can "roam" between IP addresses and your session will stay alive, you can continue typing and will receive screen updates as if nothing has happened.
