SSH "connection refused" on Raspberry pi - cannot find why

I have the following problem SSH "connection refused". It would work fine, but while I am working on the SSH, I would get "connection refused" and would have to re-connect (which does not occur for good 5-10 minutes). I have tried everything (restart linux, restart ssh) yet still does not help. I've checked var/log as well but nothing helpful in there...

NOTE: Interesting note I found is, when I try ssh to my external ip(277...), it goes to black cmd screen, I close this and try my 192.168.0.13 address and it lets me sign in.. but short while, again connection refused... Of course if I open my server and sudo sshd restart, my ssh "connection refused" goes away...

My ssh port is opened at 23, and I have it set on modem/router as well

pi@raspberrypi:~$ netstat -tlpn (No info could be read for "-p": geteuid()=1000 but you should be root.) Active Internet connections (only servers) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:80 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN - tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:21 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN - tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:3350 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN - tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:23 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN - tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:3389 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN - tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:3306 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 

When I get disconnected, and log back in and check "WHO" I only see my previous connection, my root and the current connection

whopi@raspberrypi:~$ who pi tty1 2013-01-28 09:20 pi pts/0 2013-01-28 10:28 (192.168.0.12) pi pts/1 2013-01-28 10:32 (192.168.0.12) 

This is what I have in my ssh_config that I have modified (SSH to 23 because rogers use 22...)

# Port 23 ... #Keep my damn connection alive! KeepAlive yes ServerAliveInterval 60 

This is what I get when I run arp-scan

pi@raspberrypi:/etc$ sudo arp-scan -I eth0 -l | grep 192.168.0.13 192.168.0.13 a0:6c:ec:ec:bb:5b (Unknown) 

This part I found online that told me I should post the following two information

EDIT: pi@raspberrypi:~$ ssh -vvv 192.168.0.13 (THIS might be long... Thank you Bart Friederichs)
