I am running LEAF 4.2.1

Every once in a while i run into long pauses trying to resolve an a DNS 
address.  I have 3 internal networks (one wireless) all of which look to 
the router for DNS.

My /etc/reslov.conf

nameserver 127.0.0.1

nameserver isps dns numbers

nameserver 192.168.1.254
nameserver 192.168.2.254
nameserver 192.168.5.254

***
dnsmasq
finds its nameservers from /etc/resolv.conf

# If you want dnsmasq to listen for DHCP and DNS requests only on
# specified interfaces (and the loopback) give the name of the
# interface (eg eth0) here.
# Repeat the line for more than one interface.
#interface=
interface=lo
interface=eth1
interface=eth2
interface=wlan0

Occasionally I get long pauses on clients looking for say www.google.com

During these pauses that can last for several seconds, I can run a 
nslookup ON THE LEAF BOX
nslookup www.google.com
and it just hangs looking for an address.

If I run
nslookup www.google.com ns1.sonic.net
it seems to resolve the address (ns1.sonic.net is my isp's primary dns)

after it finds the dns server, then

nslookup www.google.com
server 127.0.0.1
address 1: 74.125.224.145
address 2: 74,125.224.144
etc.

Is something wrong with my dnsmask configuration. It did not used to act 
this way and I have not changed how I have it configured.

by the way, ip -s link sh
does not show any dropped packets or errors on any interface.
