Try to isolate the problem, may seem obvious but it is important to
work through to find the fault.

When you have a problem can you access the routers web configuration
page still? Does the router have any diagnostic, eg adsl status, dns
lookup or ping test that it can do from the web configuration.

This will test if the router can still see the internet or not. If the
router can see the internet then you need to look at your main box
configuration and suspect a dns or routing problem, possibly set by
dhcp.

Also prehapse a router firmware upgrade would help. Check the
manufactures website.
