Monkeybrains ping to their router (skipping mine), high latency and variation
When I had intermittent problems with Comcast, I ran prometheus with blackbox_exporter (to ping a number of hosts every 10s) and surfboard_exporter (to show signal strength; only applicable to cable modem). Take a traceroute and add all the important routers to the list of hosts to ping. I discovered that the signal strength of one of the channels went down every time there was an issue. I never found out whose side the problem was (Comcast or mine), but when I downgraded to an old cable modem that uses different channels the problem went away.

How I would automate monitoring DNS queries in basic Prometheus
https://github.com/prometheus/blackbox_exporter/blob/master/...
So you need 2 modules, one for each ip version. As for autamating setting these up, we deploy our Prometheus server with salt so we can use Jinja templating in all our Prometheus config files. That really cuts down on repeating boiler plate code.
This is also interesting for other reasons; in host downtime situations you can sometime see they will drop one type of traffic and not the other.

Uplink Monitor - Internal IP's to External Facing Status Page
You can also use the blackbox_exporter to probe various endpoints. But in reality, you don't need to do this most of the time since the up metric gets you what you want.

Use prometheus+grafana for bug bounty / pentesting data collection
I have seen some people doing with these traditional relational databases, and I was wondering if it could be a good fit for prometheus+grafana as I have been messing around with prometheus BlackBox exporter (https://github.com/prometheus/blackbox_exporter) for web status monitoring.

Uptime monitoring (~1000 urls)
You could use prometheus as a monitoring tool, blackbox_exporter to "export" the urls to prometheus, alertmanager for notifications, and grafana for nice gui dashboards (and maybe also notifications).
