So long story short, after 6hours of trying to get ssh key to windows work, and failed. I decided while I was at it, and try to change the key in the router from a privet key to public key, as, you know, don't show you privet key. But after failing at that to. I just deiced to revert everything and take it an other day.

But I seem to have closed the copy of the text in the "Authorized Keys" that I did for backup. So I'm trying to remember how you are suppose to write it, but I can't get it to work.

I tried just the key, and
Code:
ssh-ed25519
[KEY]

and
Code:
ed25519
[KEY]

But I can't login with the key. The key is the same, as is the settings in putty. The only change was in the "Authorized Keys" window. Anyone know how I should write it?
