This occurs when your preferred DNS server stops responding, or is no longer available, presumably due to your router.
When you already have a connection with another server/computer during this event, it is called "phantom internet", or internet remaining that might soon fade away due to packet loss or new requests, since new requests (usually) attempt to resolve a hostname from the unavailable DNS. Similar to phantom pain.

Get the Internet Deathmug. A place in the internet were people from all over the place regardless of their views come together to talk about there life. The original one was a Donkey Kong soundtrack but it got taken down for copyright. Some have replaced the original one and tried to restore the comments.
Another internet checkpoint is the video Kasane Teto - Teto territory uploaded by Ce-gook. It has over 130k comments but seems to be undiscovered by the wider internet.
