Looking around these forums and elsewhere I find that this is a common issue, however the proposed solutions have not been helpful and thus I ask in hopes that someone might be able to have the right solution.
I have an old IBM M2 server with Ubuntu 20.04 installed. I have tested that I can use curl and ping to different sources like Google and that works just fine. My server can clearly see the internet. But I cannot ping the ubuntu servers, however.
I've tried with ufw enabled and disabled and it's the same either way.
The following errors show up when I attempt sudo apt-get update:
sudo apt-get update

I have not set up any sort of proxy. This server is running out of the box settings and so I am confused as to why apt-get update (and also apt-get install seems to have similar issues) just doesn't work.
Any ideas?
