Maybe a security group is blocking it?

To do a trace from an instance to the 'Net, you'd need to open up for ICMP 
traffic.

But I'd suggest to be more "smart" about that - what service do the instance 
need
access to [on the 'Net]?

To download package (like 'apt-get update/apt-get install/apt-get upgrade' or 
whatever
package manager you're using etc)? Then 'just' open up the HTTP and/or HTTPS 
(port
80 and/or 443 from the instance to '0.0.0.0/0' (for a very open rule).

To have _all_ the instances have that access 'by default', put it in the 
"default" security
group.

Note: This needs to be an 'egress' rule only.
