Also, anyone seeing the issue, any chance you could post which miner you're using, and where you downloaded it from?
I'm using cgminer-3.7.2-kalroth from https://github.com/Kalroth/cgminer-3.7.2-kalroth It should be clean.
The consensus on IRC is that the problem is independent of OS and mining software
Join us on #wafflepool on Freenode if you can

Same thing here. Mining 11 days straight and just got this happening to me today. Hadn't touched my rig in those 11 days. Using CGMiner 3.7.3 kalroth, also using cgwatcher.
To everyone seeing this problem, is x.wafflepool.com still showing up as the connected server name in cgminer or other miner software, or is it displaying this unexpected ip address instead?
Displaying the unexpected IP
Whoever is seeing the DNS issues, can you post what your DNS is, any any lookups and results for our endpoints? We haven't changed anything in terms of DNS in weeks, and its very disconcerting that multiple people are seeing this.
Name: uswest.wafflepool.com
Address: 192.241.211.125
Name: useast.wafflepool.com
Address: 162.243.89.19
Name: eu.wafflepool.com
Address: 95.85.61.208
all VIA ISP DNS (I'd rather not say who)
The next time the problem occurs I'll give you a network capture of it!
My cgminer started falling back to a backup pool and no longer connecting to the Waffle EU server. I see in my firewall logs that it tries to connect to 206.223.224.225:3009. Is that address related to Wafflepool and how so? It shows on whois lookup as a residential cable in Montreal, Canada. If I restart the cgminer it connects to Waffle EU normally but the same thing happens after a while.
I saw this as well with the same IP. Myself and a couple other people are trying to track down the problem on #wafflepool
My theory is dns hijacking
I've set up some network capturing hardware to try and figure out what happens
