The computer is connected to the internet but I can’t connect to droplet normally except recovery. what should I do?

i cant still connect
Hey @73d8d9cce46345f097eaffe769b044,
First thing would be to see if you have a network connection. Try to either ping your Droplet from your computer or connect to your Droplet via the recovery console and try to ping google from there. If either one of both do not work then it’s a network issue.
If that’s not the case, see if by accident your Droplet is not full:
Sometimes when it’s really really full you won’t be able to login so that might be another reason behind the issue.
