PuTTY on Windows 10 showing Connection Timed Out

I installed PuTTY on windows 10 to connect to a workstation. On entering the IP address it remains idle for a while and says Fatal Error, Connection Timed Out. I tried disabling my firewall and turning off my anti-virus(K7 total security) but still no use. Can anybody help resolve this issue? Another friend of mine was able to connect without any hindrance, even he has windows 10.

  • Maybe there's a firewall between you and the host you're trying to connect to that's not forwarding port 22.

  • There could be any number of possibilities... firewall on either client or server, network configuration between you and your colleague (VLAN, routing etc.)...

Check, If you can establish TCP Connection on port 22(ssh server) or whatever configured.



When opening PuTTY :




  • Input the hostname of the ssh server

  • but change the Connection type to Telnet and port number to 22.


You should see some greeting message from the ssh server.
