I found the issue. For whatever reason why it doesn't happen on 11.4,
an incoming ICMP Redirect message is coming from the gateway to direct
all traffic to a new gateway.

I only disabled it because the 'route' isn't getting flushed from the
network stack when the network entry is removed.

The redirect poisoned the network stack since I can't connect to the
remote host unless I'm on the network where the redirect originated.

/usr/sbin/routef might be of some help.

That didn't work. And my work-around of setting
net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_redirects = 0
doesn't work either.
