DHCP is enabled already.
It seems like the box itself or the image is blocking the connection... I have tried everything from my PC and nothing is helping.

I noticed that you are not using, Open BlackHole 4.1.032, and not even 4.1.001 version ( OE-A based ).
Probably Open BlackHole 0.1
More: Gui version from 2015.01.25
Firmware version dated: 2018.04.07.
Take a look:
This is your screenshot.
To despite, can you please upload some photos of your STB?, as:
- Front cover
- Upper cover
- Back cover
thanks,
best regards

Ok, is that wrong or what? What is it supposed to be there if not the gateway address?
You could try altering your network settings, to see if re-starting them clears the problem.
Go into the network menu and disable DHCP, then re-boot your receiver, check if you can connect, using DCC, if not enable it again, re-boot your receiver, check the IP Address hasn't changed and try using DCC again.

I did not see the ip adress as being a problem because the Webif connects.
You may try using a different computer or downloading one of the Vu+ apps and installing it into almost any android device. Would be interesting to know of you get the connection refused error when using a different device. It looks like the password has been changed on the image you are using now.
The only other option would be to try a fresh install of another image. Would be a good idea to make a full image backup and a backup of settings before you do this.

Please, do a screen grab of your image info screen by finding the appropriate menu and then typing in your browser your IP address followed by /grab
(it seems to be
192.168.1.2/grab
because we think you have a very, very, very old image installed.

Here you are: you are running OpenBlackHole 0.1!!!! A pre-beta-experimental version of OBH.
If you consider that OBH 0.4 was still very experimental, imagine, how much developments have been done since 0.1.
We had the 0.4, the 0.6, the 1.0 and finally the 4.1 with its 35 updates....
P.S. You'd rather save that image grabbed by right-clicking on it, and not posting your whole PC screen

You can't update from Open Black Hole 0.1 to Open Black Hole 4.1, via the menu, it's a different build and requires a re-flash, using a USB stick.
You will lose everything, if you upgrade.
You can save a few things, like your channels, and bouquets, using programs like dreamboxedit, and FileZilla, a free FTP program, but as you can't connect, with anything, I'm guessing even they will not work.

Probably Putty is more "demanding". I think is worth a try by Dreamboxedit or similar.

There are files located in the receiver's /etc folder which allow or do not allow connection by remote host. So the files could be set to not allow remote connection which would cause the "connection closed by remote host" message to be seen immediately when you try to connect using putty.
Probably the best or easiest thing to do is make a full backup of the image you have now, then backup the settings. Install a fresh up-to-date image, then try to restore settings using the backup from the old image. At worst, you could always load the full image backup and get back everything you had, including the connection problem.
