I have recently upgraded my home wifi to an eeros mesh network. I am now trying to configure my desktop (ubuntu 14.06) to allow remote ssh access.

I have installed openssh-server, changed the access port in the `sshd_config` file, and I can run `ssh -p ##### localhost` successfully. However when I try `ssh -p ##### user@ip.address`, I get a connection refused (doesn't work on port 22 either).

I have followed the configuration here (<https://thepcspy.com/read/making-ssh-secure/>), which prior to having the mesh network worked just fine.

Any help is much appreciated.
