Thanks all for the suggestions. For the sake of closure:
I Replaced my 10-yr old workhorse R7000 w/a new AX4200 (RAX43) which resulted in a new IP being assigned. Problem solved.
Is any Armor or parental controls enabled on the router?
No
Any changes made to the router as of late?
No
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
Version1.0.9.88_10.2.88
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Motorola MB8610
Try different DNS on the router from the auto detected ISP DNS by the router?
Huh? I have "Get Automatically from ISP" checked when I log into the router. I have not tried "Use these DNS servers" option (out of fear of the unknown)
Has a power off for 1 minute then back ON with the ISP modem and router been performed since last update?
yes
Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
Turn off and unplug modem.
Turn off router and computers.
Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
Turn on computers and rest of network.
Done many times; problem still there

It probably won't cause the single-site blockage, but that firmware is seriously out of date, near on four years old. About 10 versions behind the latest.

I have seen odd blocked sites. They usually boil down to something at their end or to my browser.
