You don't need to stop, since it is a different port. (But okay, since it
makes sure the client isn't using it.)

When you attempt to connect you should get a lot more reporting. I assume
that your problem is routing and not ssh related.

And what does "ssh -v" tell you?

Checking your routing. Try ping, traceroute and other tools (and
protocols).

Can you get to the server at all?
