Hello,
I would recommend starting with a traceroute from your PC to the droplet:
traceroute your_droplets_ip_here
That way you should be able to figure out if your connections are getting to the droplet at all.
Also, could you share the following:
-
What is the firewall that you are using?
-
Can you share the firewall rules that you currently have?
-
What is the exact error that you get when you try to SSH to the droplet?
-
Are you trying to login with the root user and do you have your SSH key uploaded already?
-
What is the OS that you are using?
Regards, Bobby
thanks, I know the reason, because of the GFW blocked the ipaddress, btw, I am from China… Thansk for help.
