Unable to access Internet from an EC2 instance

Question

Hello,  
My instance ID is: i-0e5a2c191d4ff1b02  
This instance is in a public subnet in a custom VPC. The subnet is associated to the route table that has the route to Internet via Internet Gateway.  
DNS resolution is working.  
  
I am able to logon to the instance via SSH.  
  
However, from the instance,  outoging connections to the Internet is not working.  
  
ping google.com  
PING google.com (172.217.164.174) 56(84) bytes of data.  
^C  
--- google.com ping statistics ---  
8 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 6999ms  
  
Can't connect to Yum repositories.  
  
What could be the issue?

Answer

I reviewed the networking configuration after having a cup of coffee.   
Recently, I had accidentally removed the outgoing connections in the attached security groups. I undid the change and all is well.
