A fancy modern turbo'ing CPU which has power availability feedback loops might just slow down in this scenario, but I don't think anyone has put anything remotely that fancy into a low power SoC that these routers were using.
So yeah, seems unlikely the only impact would be a sluggish dashboard. Maybe the device was churning on error re-transmissions from the brownout? Like the CPU itself was OK but the ethernet ports weren't?
