Ugh.
Then the origin of the problem can be in the router itself.
Look into the router's options (QoS, firewall settings, logs...) to check
if you can tune some of these parameters.
It happens to me very frequently that the router NAT tables are filled up
and momentary I loose Internet connection. This happens in a local
network with many clients (a busy router) but I won't discard something
similar is happening here.
Also, search into the manufacturer site for a firmware update.
You can also test with another computer connected to the same router to
see if it happens the same and so discard any configuration problem in
the machine.

If a ping does not work, it's a bad sign (I mean, not a DNS issue).
Anyway, yes, you can use whatever DNS server you want, they do not need
to be the ones your ISP provides.
I.e., you can use openDNS public servers (208.67.222.222-208.67.220.220)
or Google's ones (8.8.8.8-8.8.4.4).
