SSH2 module is refusing to connect (PHP)

I know there was a previous post, but the OP indicated that he intentionally had incorrect data and it was giving him an incorrect output, I am inputting a correct IP address and port and SSH2 is triggering my failed to connect line.

if (!function_exists("ssh2_connect")) die("Error: No SSH2");
if(!($con = ssh2_connect(103.114.104.241, 22))){
  echo "Error";
} else {
    if(!ssh2_auth_password($con, root, password)) {
        echo "Error: Bad credentials.";
    } else {
        if (!($stream = ssh2_exec($con, $command ))) {
            echo "Error: Execution failed";

Where the $command variable is executing whatever command I want the server to run (in the case of this, it will hopefully eventually connect to another server to compared ping speeds to an inputed ip)

I'm lost what to try next.

What I have tried:

I have tried double checking everything, I have tried connecting to the server without the module (in Putty). Also it outputs the "Error" message, not one of my other ones.
