The setup is:
 PC -> Router -> ADSL Modem -> ISP

I've dropped the MTU to 1492 on the PC.  The Router already was set to
1492 (the router has preconfig settings for my ISP).

Now I guess the only thing to do is monitor and wait to see if it
drops off again.

The scenario for "Joe" on this webpage is close to what I see.  In the
scenario, it's a single website with the problem whereas with what I
see, it's all websites when it happens... and then it recovers shortly
thereafter.
