Generally, in my experience, this error indicates a routing issue rather
than a firewall issue.  I've seen this on one of my own servers as a
result of load balancing en route, where routing decisions are based on
the transport layer (TCP/UDP/ICMP) rather than the internet layer.  ICMP
ping packets will take one route, whereas TCP and UDP packets will take
another, so a ping will work, but a connection using another transport
protocol will fail.  This is probably temporary.
