I've always turned stuff off, not just router. Seems daft to leave stuff on or on standby when everyone is either asleep or out, except fridge obvs.
Routers/modems recalibrate based on line conditions. By turning it off and on again you're forcing it to recalibrate from base settings rather than just adjusting in response to change.

I'm not against leaving router on 24/7 as it might make the noir camera projects more useful.
