Hmm. No 6 hours after posting this, the problem cleared up. I'm temped
to finger the selinux-targeted-policy that I installed from
updates-testing for clearing things up. That was the only change in the
intervening time.
As to the DNS issue. Bingo. /etc/resolv.conf to be exact still had an
old IPv6 address in it. Oops. I thought that the resolver should
failover and stay locked to the best dns server fast than 30 seconds. I
see I'm going to have to figure out why it took so long. Thanks for
reminding me to double check.

If the airwaves belong to the public why does the public only get 3
non-overlapping WIFI channels?
