    OK, so it's a Ubuntu issue exclusively. Where did 169.254.0.0/16 come from? That's an APIPA address. If that's what you've got for IP addresses, then that means none of the cliens could get an address from the DHCP server.

        Just for a test, what happens if you configure one of these Ubuntu clients with a static IP address, netmask & gateway? Then try to ping 8.8.8.8.

                Well, I'm stumped. We've gone through pretty much everything.

                    here is a question: does ubuntu not like the netmask of 255.255.240.0?

                      I can't see why. That's a common mask. Test it by manually setting the mask to a /24 or /16 or something.

                          I spin up Ubuntu servers all the time, both static and dynamic, and they never have any problems talking. If it's working for you then great. I suspected it might be something totally weird, but you had it with three different boxes.
