I have the exact same issue. Running fine since December until this pops up in early March with 0 changes from me. This is bizarre. What happened in March to set this off for everyone? Is it related to daylight savings somehow?

I'm betting there is a code issue that was triggered after the DST change. I've thought about disabling it to see if it makes a difference. Not a big deal if the router clock is an hour off.
Regarding the issue, I'm running for over 24 hours without a failure after a factory reset and manually changing my config to match my preexisting setup. It was a big PITA since I have 75 clients on my ACL, some port forwarding, and reserved IPs. If this becomes a thing that needs to be done every few months, it's going to be a major hassle. Anyway, if I make it through a week with no issues, great. If not, I'll try a cronjob running every 30 minutes with ./etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart. Hopefully that will fix me for the long term until I can deploy a more enterprise class solution.
