This looks a lot like either a routing  or NDP issue with the adjacent
router. Well, an NDP issue devolves to a routing issue. It also possible
that RDP is an issue, but, if you can't ping the opposite end, that
eliminates RDP. You might check for NDP traffic with tcpdump or wireshark
when the connection is restored. If you are not IPv6 conversant, NDP is the
IPv6 replacement for ARP and it's pretty obvious how this would impact your
connectivity.
