[SOLVED] SSH into router using password rejected

[frollic]

Unable to SSH to router

ssh -oHostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-rsa root@192.168.1.1 I found this online and it worked. This is what was required of me to get into a switch: ssh -o KexAlgorithms=diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 -o HostKeyAlgorithms=ssh-dss -oCiphers=aes256-cbc example@x.x.x.x Encryption is not my thing so I don't know why this is happening. Here's where I found the solution.
