It's likely the cause because of the SIOCADDRT (add route) error. If I'm
guessing correctly (you don't say how you configure your network - or
what OS version you are running, and you many have personalised your
system) - you should have your gateway set in /etc/network/interfaces.
If the rest of this post applies you'll only have resolv.conf to solve.

You may have previously fixed networkmanager, but the upgrade may well
have unfixed it.

The earlier versions of networkmanager were "fixed" with:-
echo "manual" | sudo tee /etc/init/network-manager.override

You can check that with cat /etc/init/network-manager.override

That is no longer sufficient to disable networkmanager *and* enable ip4
to work if you've chosen to manage your network with
/etc/network/interfaces. You'll now need to append the following to
/etc/sysctl.conf to enable the gw to be added by /etc/network/intefaces
and use ipv4 only:-
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6 = 1

If you only ever use one network profile then networkmanager is
redundant, just slows down the boot, increases your updates, and adds
another layer of complexity to your OS.

If you:- only use one network profile; wish to manage your network with
/etc/network/interfaces; and use IPV4 - I suggest you remove networkmanager.

That is the systemd upgrade.

If you don't have IPv6 you likely don't have a choice. Especially given
your NATing.
