Best to debug from server side, the side you wish to connect to, if everything else seems ok.
You can do it by command line starting the ssh server with multiple (up to 3) -d switches, and observe the output on screen.
Or uncomment / change the LogLevel in sshd_config to DEBUG3, restart and look at system logs.
Much more verbose output will follow.
I used this to succesfully debug one switch network brand which was unable to connect to SSH server due to server and client unable to find a common cipher to agree on.
Once i got it to debug mode, a server wrote a nice message, and when a chosen Cipher was added to server everything worked.
After you have identified the problem, turn it off since it will produce a lot of logs and possibly invade peoples privacy.
Hope that helps
