It's possible and that depends on how old the router is as they eventually
play out. They do go defective if they are not protected properly with an
UPS/AVR system IMHO. The routers like clean and constant power and don't
like spikes or drainage on the line from household appliances switching on
and off all the time and will go defective if it happens on a routine
basis. And I am not talking about some surge protector power strip laying
of the floor plugged into a wall outlet.

I would say the router just needed a hard *reset* or power down to
straighten itself out.

You should be concerned if it continues to happen.

I am glad things worked out for you.
