My Fibre connection has been fine since it was setup in January. This week however I've started seeing frequent DNS lookup timeouts. I normally use OpenDNS, but switching to Google or the Plusnet DNS gives the same result, eg
nslookup - 8.8.8.8
> www.bbc.co.uk
Server: UnKnown
Address: 8.8.8.8
DNS request timed out.
timeout was 2 seconds.

At the same time that DNS lookups timeout I see no packet loss from a continuous ping to 8.8.8.8.
Reconnecting makes no apparent difference.
It seems like something on the route is dropping DNS packets. Anybody seen similar issues?
