Check that 
* connection is not blocked by firewall: ``sudo iptables -L``
* your ssh is listening for port 22: ``ss -l -t``
* your ip address is correct: ``ip addr``

I would add:  Check if openssh-server is installed.

My LAN used to have 1 or two computers and/or debices and my Debian
Linux machine on it.  I used to be able to log in either on the LAN from
my wife's Windows computer or from outside the LAN with my Debian laptop
with ssh or Windows machines on which I had installed putty or Bitvise.

I have dynamic DNS hosted by Dyn and I use ddclient.

I currently use DHCP for my Debian machine and have also attempted to
connect with its local IP from the Windows machine on the LAN.

Now all methods fail.

I don't remember if attachments are allowed but I will attach one
example of a failure as I possible clue.

TIA for any help,
