I have just installed PuTTY 64 bit and am trying to connect to my website.
I get as far as entering the IP address and port 22 but when I click Open I get a PuTTY fatal error
Network error: Network error: Software caused connection abort.
I do not know what is causing this error.

I perhaps should have stated PuTTY is installed in 64 bit Windows 10, website is GoDaddy cPanel hosted alancameron.me.uk
Either your Windows firewall is blocking port 22, or your router or firewall upstream of your Windows machine is blocking it. Can you ssh to something else on your local network successfully?

How do I check the routers I have? One acts as a cable modem and the other = >a downstream router for all my machines locally. I cannot see any way to ch= >eck them. How do I check the ISP (which seems unlikely as I cannot SSH loca= >lly).?
