Geesh. It was a tough day - lots of our customers with Belkin devices. Agree it has been fixable with customer changes 
but would have been better not to have to respond to this today (obviously).

Sounds like a bad firmware update most likely.
Presumably the Belkin routers perform caching DNS for the LAN clients for if the LAN clients use alternate DNS 
servers (OpenDNS, Google, your ISPs, etc) there are no longer any issues for those devices, as reported by several 
random people on the Internet.

Over on outages, someone mentioned that heartbeat.belkin.com was unreachable from some areas, and that was causing 
their routers to shut down.

Cheers,
 Steve
