I've had two routers die on me. Well, I do abuse them by putting different (hacker-friendly) firmware on them so I can do what I want to do with them (turn them into powerful wireless cards).
I would suggest getting a packet sniffer and seeing what traffic is on your network. Ethereal is one I've used before. Apple has one, but I haven't used it yet.
Was it connected to the cable modem? Would there be traffic from the WAN network pinging your router relentlessly?
