can ping gateway but cant ping out

the power went out last night and my servers rebooted, my 70-persitan rules created an eth2 and 3 so I wiped it out, rebooted and eth0 and 1 are back like they are suppose to be. However I can't seem to get out. I can ping the gateway with no issue, but I cant ping out. I am not sure what else to check. conf.d/net is setup the same as it was, my hosts file and resolve.conf look right.

What am I missing? Networking is not my forte, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks. (My isp is fine, I can ping out from other servers)

Is your default gw settings correct? check with route command. and if you are trying to ping a dns name and not a ip is resolve.conf correct ?

Yeah you are right it was resolv.conf ... I thought I changed that to be right .. but I guess I was not thinking right last night.

Thanks
