ssh 165.227.167.204
Gives ssh: connect to host 165.227.167.204 port 22: Resource temporarily unavailable
I enabled the 22 port and restarted ssh service.
When I ping from a web service I get a reposnse:
PING 165.227.167.204 (165.227.167.204) 56(84) bytes of data.

3 packets transmitted, 3 received, 0% packet loss, time 2000ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 97.143/97.313/97.594/0.411 ms
When doing the ping form my computer I get no output.
Got an impression there is a IP or country-based firewall on Digital Ocean. For example, when putting the address in a browser with SSH-tunnel I get
dial tcp 165.227.167.204:80: connect: connection refused
when just putting this into browser I get no response.

Hello, @epogrebnyak
Can you perform a traceroute to your server/droplet so we can see the hops and where exactly is the issue?
I can see that port 22 is open on 165.227.167.204 and also I’m getting a password prompt when trying to ssh as well.
The traceroute command can be executed like this:
For Windows 8.x and newer:
Use the search window, type command prompt and click on the Command Prompt result.
Type
and press Enter.
This will provide traceroute results from your computer to yourdomain.com. You can also use tracert with an IP, i.e. tracert 1.2.3.4
For more information on how to copy and paste the traceroute results, please check this article.
Mac OS You need to open up Terminal, located under Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal and type:
and press Enter.
Alternatively, you can go to the Applications folder -> Utilities -> Network Utility -> Traceroute and specify your domain or IP address.
You can also use traceroute with an IP, i.e. traceroute 1.2.3.4
Linux Open a Terminal window and type:
The -I option is necessary so that the traceroute uses ICMP. You can also use traceroute with an IP, i.e. traceroute -I 1.2.3.4
Let me know how it goes.
