But the gateway IS the router. By way of 8 port switches, all these machines are 1 or 2 switches away from the router. A route -n
from this machine, running wheezy yet:
root@coyote:/etc# route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
0.0.0.0 192.168.71.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1000 0 0 eth0
192.168.71.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
And every other machine on this network will answer the same. Even a
pi 3b running jessie:
pi@picnc:~ $ sudo route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
0.0.0.0 192.168.71.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
192.168.71.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
except avahi has been disabled on that install.
another machine:
gene@GO704:~$ sudo route -n
[sudo] password for gene:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
0.0.0.0 192.168.71.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1
169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1000 0 0 eth1
192.168.71.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1
I've already posted /e/n/i.d/eth0, but here it is again:
root@rock64:~# cd /etc/network/interfaces.d
root@rock64:/etc/network/interfaces.d# cat eth0
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.71.11
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.71.1
Thats a direct copy/paste, so whats wrong with that. Other than the fact
that its been rebooted twice since the address was changed from
192.168.71.2 to the 11 you see above, but ifconfig still says its on
71.2 right now. So where the heck is it getting the .2 address.
Something in a recent (3-4 weeks past) update broke it, is the only conclusion
I can come to. The only clue I might have is /var/cache/apt/archives/partial,
which is empty but carry's a Jun 11 date when it was last touched. So
presumably something was updated then that didn't effect it till it was
rebooted again, at which point I lost access to the outside world.

This doesn't actually describe what I am seeing.
