SSH Connection Error

[utku]

Hello.

I'm a novice at web-developing. I have a website with cpanel and I'd like to connect to the website via SSH. I'm using windows 10. For my website, I first configured SSH settings from cpanel (created a user and gave authorization). Then, I tried to connect using a Python script with paramiko module. However, it gives the error: "Socket exception: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host (10054)". I thought this error was related to the module or something with my computer. Then, I tried to connect the server from the command line and it gives "Connection reset by <ip address> port 22". It didn't even ask the password. Finally, I tried Putty to establish SSH connection but it also gives "Network error: Software caused connection abort". I think that there is something wrong with the website/cpanel but I couldn't find anything.

This so absurd but, after spending hours, I solved the problem by resetting the modem. I thought it was a joke but I think one should always start with turning off and on again.

It really does work sometimes! I'm glad you figured it out and that you're able to access. Thanks for updating as to what resolved it for you as well.
