16.04 - apt-get update 0% [Waiting for headers]
I'm going nuts here. Perhaps I'm just an idiot. I have a remote server colocated in a data center. I initially built the server on a local network and then dispatched it to the facility. I currently have remote access via SSH. This server has been running for over 6 months without any problems that I know of. I feel that I have exhausted my results on Google and SE so now I turn to you for help.
Here is some troubleshooting information I have gathered:
Last few lines of strace. I can provide more if needed:

A thread suggested that MTU or network may be the problem:

IPv6 has been disabled on this server as per a suggestion.
I have tried rebooting the server multiple times.
apt-get clean does not solve the problem.
Tried switching to ca.archive.ubuntu.com, no luck.
I have requested a different public IP address from a different subnet to assign to the server. No luck.
Other Ubuntu servers in this data center update without a problem.
So at this point the only solution I can come up with is to reinstall the operating system. This is a production web server with a small mysql database. Everything is backed up so it wouldn't be a problem to rebuild it. Just time consuming and quite disappointing.
