I am consistently trying to connect to my RPi through SSH but the connection is refusing.

What I did is, I connect my RPi to my WiFi Router, Open Router's control panel and look into the DHCP table, enter image description here

I then opened puTTy and put this IP address as a Host name,

enter image description here

but consistently getting this error,

enter image description here

Anybody knows why I am getting this error :/ I have worked on the RPi through this process before (like a month ago) but it is not working now.

It merits mentioning that I installed, 2013-07-26-wheezy-raspbian image file on my RPi

  • Have you enabled SSH on your Raspberry Pi? Sep 28, 2013 at 16:37
  • I am using Wheezy Raspbian, SSH is enabled by default. Sep 28, 2013 at 16:48
  • Have you port scanned your pi remotely, and does ssh work locally on the pi?

The problem was with the Windows Firewall, since Mcafee preventing the Firewall to establish the connection over port 22. I had to manually allow port 22 using this tutorial, http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/open-a-port-in-windows-firewall

  • I just followed the instructions, couldn't connect. I created a "new Inbound rule" in advanced security. Can you list the instructions to create a Inbound rule? @Sufiyan Ghori
