Good that it is solved.

For benefit of other readers, I said ping does not use TCP - that does
not mean it doesn't use DNS.

In general Ping is not a good test of destination connectivity because
(i) Ping may be disabled at destination as can be used in DDoS attacks
(ii) not a TCP connection.

nslookup is good as an initial way to test DNS functionality as it can
show all the intermediate DNS servers & network connections.

wget or curl can then be used to test an LMS URL (e.g.
http://repos.squeezecommunity.org/extensions.xml)  - enabling debug and
verbose options - these commands can usually show up DNS, TCP ,HTTP, SSL
and mysqueezebox.com issues in a controlled way.
