Next time your router starts playing up, use nslookup and perhaps dig to query |

your router's DNS repeater, your ISPs resolvers and any other 3rd party DNS |
13 |
servers; e.g. openDNS, Google, or a DNS server from here: |

If it is your router, you can ask your ISP to replace it. |

If the ISP is not cooperating could perhaps run your own local DNS resolver? |
