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.

Seeing reports bounce around on the WISPA lists. Looks to be widespread.
Reports on their twitter as well.

 I've had one customer with an issue related thus far.

Anyone out there seeing issues with Belkin routers connecting?

I have also noticed that Belkins website has 80 percent packet loss and
their support number is busy.
