ssh doesnot work with wifi but work fine with wired connection












1















I have Ubuntu 13.10.



I use ssh to connect to a remote computer in the university using ssh xxxx@ws.hpc.unipg.it. It is working fine when I am using wired connection but when I try to connect through wifi using the same command it doesn’t work and gives me this error :



ssh: connect to host ws.hpc.unipg.it port 22: No route to host


I hope that someone can help me.

  • When you're connected to WiFi, can you access the internet? Give us some context on the difference between the WiFi and wired connection. For example, are both at your home? Or is the WiFi somewhere else?

Assuming your wifi is working, this probably means the ssh port is blocked on the wifi network. Or possibly that there is a firewall in front of the server which doesn't recognise the wifi IP addresses as valid.



It's possible that you are on some kind of guest wifi network, and you might be able to get better access by registering for another wifi network.

    It means that you don't have internet in your wifi (or at least, that host isn't accessible from your wifi). So, how to diagnostics? You can use ping and nmap, but let me tell you, apparently that host isn't public available:



    ping -c2 ws.hpc.unipg.it
    PING ws.hpc.unipg.it (141.250.16.254) 56(84) bytes of data.
    --- ws.hpc.unipg.it ping statistics ---
    2 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 1008ms


    Here it said that the host didn't asnwer my pings



    nmap -p22 ws.hpc.unipg.it

    Starting Nmap 6.40 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2013-12-22 11:10 AST
    Stats: 0:00:01 elapsed; 0 hosts completed (1 up), 1 undergoing Connect Scan
    Connect Scan Timing: About 50.00% done; ETC: 11:10 (0:00:01 remaining)
    Nmap scan report for ws.hpc.unipg.it (141.250.16.254)
    Host is up (0.19s latency).
    rDNS record for 141.250.16.254: gw.hpc.unipg.it
    PORT STATE SERVICE
    22/tcp filtered ssh

    Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 2.34 seconds


    Here it says that the port is filtered (it could be dropping my packets), hence is very likely I can't connect. When I try to connect, it will timeout my request. So, how to solve this? Contact your system administrator for guidance.
