I don't know. I googled for how to disable ipv6, and accordingly, on the
box that can't see beyond the router, changed /etc/modprobe.d/aliases:
#alias net-pf-10 ipv6
alias net-pf-10 off
Even after a reboot this made no difference in the behaviour.

Yes. But stock kernels usually work fine for me, and I'm surprised this
one doesn't. In the meanwhile, I've rebuilt the box to rearrange
partitions, and in the process have made it possible for me to drop back
to a 2.4 kernel which is working.

Can't get to that machine at the moment (must not have enabled ssh
incoming yet). I'll post it later.
