You may be able to get a plusnet router ( i tihnk they charge £5/6 or somewhere around that for P&P)
but as with almost all ISPs, ISP supplied routers are usualy on the just good enough for the basics scale fo tings.
If you want a decent routeer then you would be probably be looking at the open market

If it is the router being faulty then the new router will sort it
However having a router turn off is most unusual as it would normally reboot itself
Perhaps if you were more specific in explaining your problem we may be able to point you in the right direction
These questions may help
When you say - turns off
Do you mean
That the router just turns itself off and there are no lights showing on it
The router reboots
The router lights - some of them - stay on but you lose either sync with the exchange or connection to the internet or both
The router lights all stay green but you lose wifi connectivity
The router lights all stay green but the wired connection to the router fails

Update one problem : when I try on master socket seems fine extension socket faulty . I cannot use it one the master socket because someone can trip over since it is too exposed also if I did i would have no place to place my router and phone line. Is there anyway to replace extension socket that PlusNet installed when I got my broadband pacakge and phone line(for free)?

However from the information you have provided up to now it seems to me that it is more likely that the power point adjacent to the extension socket is faulty
Can you try in the extension socket but using an extension lead to plug the router into a different power point
