    SSH open port but cannot connect

    Hello! I am trying to connect to my desktop via ssh from a different network. Accord to canyouseeme.org, it says "Success: I can see your service on xxxx on port 22!" However, I am still not able to connect...

    After running
    Code:
    sudo ufw status
    Code:
    [Status: active
    
    To                         Action      From
    --                         ------      ----
    22                         ALLOW       Anywhere                  
    22/tcp                     ALLOW       Anywhere                  
    OpenSSH                    ALLOW       Anywhere                  
    22 (v6)                    ALLOW       Anywhere (v6)             
    22/tcp (v6)                ALLOW       Anywhere (v6)             
    OpenSSH (v6)               ALLOW       Anywhere (v6)
    no problem on my firewall, I tried running
    Code:
    sudo apt purge openssh-server && sudo apt install openssh-server
    to no avail.

    Finally I ran
    Code:
    tcpdump -i enp3s0 port 22 -n -Q inout
    and all I got was this. my ssh_config file is still the default here.

    What am I missing here?

    I do get internet, and to add to that my linux emulator is able to update ppa repositories but not ssh while on cell cervice... However, I connected to my work's wifi network and it worked just like that.
