I can now host 8.8.8.8 and get google-public-dns-a.google.com
I can dig google-public-dns-a.google.com and get google-public-dns-a.google.com. 86283 IN A 8.8.8.8

But when I ping 8.8.8.8 I get no response even though I can resolve
domains.

firewall is off.

There must be a firewall somewhere down the line as google's public DNS
on 8.8.8.8 is a pingable IP (At least, I can ping it from here).

Can you ping any external address at all ?
google.com for example.



No.
And my firewall is down.
