Hello friend!
Is your droplet responding to ping? If so, it sounds like at least one of these things may be true:
Depending on distro and version of OS, you may be able to type “netstat -tulpn” in console to see what services are listening, and you should see SSH on there. You can manage firewall with iptables (ex. https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-a-firewall-using-iptables-on-ubuntu-14-04 ). If SSH is not listening, you can restart it with one of these commands:
systemctl restart ssh service ssh restart
