Advice wanted on Belkin modem/router

My Belkin works fine, most of the time, but every week or so I find I am unable to connect to my server or any 'net address. I normally keep the router switched on all day every day. In desperation I unplugged the router and left it for a couple of minutes. When I plugged it in again everything worked fine. This has now happened several times. I would like to know if it is OK to leave the thing switched on all the time, I do so because I was told it could lose the settings if switched off? Also, is there a fault with the router or is it normal to have to switch it on and off? Many thanks.
