Sounds like the router's DNS settings got clobbered. I've heard of this happening before when UPNP is enabled.

There should be a reset switch (usually concealed iside a hole) on the back or bottom. That'll get you back to factory settings. Reconfigure as needed and I suggest you switch UPNP OFF, there is never any real need for it.
