To my mind it seems more likely that router's Wi-Fi hardware, firmware 
or software has always contained the possibility of getting stuck in a 
partially non-working state sometimes, and rebooting can get it out of 
that state.

We had an old Belkin router that did that sometimes, and it usually 
only affected a subset of the connected devices. After rebooting, it 
could go for weeks or months before it happened again. That thing 
never got any updates, which was probably half the problem.
