That wouldn't explain why replacing the router fixes the problem, unless he just happens to be replacing the old router with one that just happens to have a stronger transmitter or better antenna. The pessimist in me says that the chances of that happening can't be 100% of the time.

A new router could fix the problem if it happens to choose a different channel than the old router and one that is not so heavily used by neighbours. Personally, I use an app on my Android (WiFi Analyzer) that tells me the best channel to put my router on to avoid neighbours' channels.
