Well, ping is the usual first line of diagnosis.... You're sure it's not a routing issue? Many times I've had similar situations and most usually it was that my gateway or server(s) didn't realize who my client was/where he was located any longer. Entering him and his IP in their /etc/hosts often did the trick.
