Could it be that you replaced the motherboard?  And you're using builtin
Ethernet, so the MAC address changed?  And the router used to assign a
static IP to your server according to the old MAC, but now doesn't do
that because the MAC is different?  And the router had port-forwarding
configured to forward port 22 to the old static IP, which is no longer
used by the new server?

I would check the router configuration if I were you.
