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 
servers; e.g. openDNS, Google, or a DNS server from here:

http://www.circleid.com/posts/20110407_top_public_dns_resolvers_compared/

so that you can draw comparisons to help you determine where the problem lies.  
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?
