Update. I did a fresh install of Ubuntu Linux 17.04 which was an update to
the previous 16.10 version on the problem PC. Which included the formatting
of the HDD's. Once installed I noticed that I STILL had the same connection
problem.
The PC can ping the router. The router can ping the PC. The router can ping
remote locations fine. The PC can ping local network PC's and the router ok
but can not reach anyplace beyond the router. All the other PC's can
connect anywhere just fine. BBBS once moved to a Linux mint PC can make
outbound connections just fine again.
