Can you sniff/monitor switch ports? If yes, I would walk (sniff) from your test box port, all the way to your local ntp server port to see where the packet gets dropped. Do you have any packet inspection software/function running on your router? We had case that our IPS dropped ntp traffic to our ntpd servers because number of udp packets were over the limit set by security.
Do your servers have same network mask?
