Unable to SSH to my 7800N

[jez_uk1]

Hi folks

As of yesterday, I am no longer able to SSH to my 7800N. When I attempt the SSH, the connection is accepted and becomes established but there is no login prompt.

Code: Select all

$ ssh -l admin 192.168.1.254
(nothing happens, sits here for as long as I've waited)

SSH connection is shown as established:

Code: Select all

$ netstat -n | grep 192.168.1.254
tcp        0      0 192.168.1.5:53787       192.168.1.254:22        ESTABLISHED

I've tried a factory reset, tried restarting the router a couple of times. Also tried reloading the configuration after factory reset and I can't see any syslog entries relating to SSH. Tried SSH from multiple different computers too. I guess I could try reflashing the firmware on the router, otherwise I'm all out of ideas. Any clues to what might be wrong?

Thanks!
