I have just upgraded to 11.04 and have encountered a strange problem.

My test machine has been happily running 10.10, so time came to do a clean install of 11.04 to check it out.

My test and two other desktops plus NAS sit on my home network and are connected vis a Buffalo WLI-TX4-G54HP ethernet converter which in turn connects to the rest of the network through my wireless router a Buffalo WBMR-G300N.

now after the upgrade the test machine had an IP address which it must have got from the via DHCP. but the system will not connect across the bridge. I can ping anything this side of the bridge but cannot ping devices on the other side, including the gateway. The other non upgraded PCs will ping across the bridge

Any ideas what is different in 11.04 that would stop this working?

Installed new NIC and GPU and upgrade went OK including working across the bridge
