Stuff.Hunter's reply is correct. My router was turned off every night also. No settings were lost.

As an aside; once it was turned off for three weeks. When I switched it on, all the settings were at factory default. It was no big deal, I had saved the configuration and security settings to files. Restoration of thse settings only took a few minutes.
Most routers have this facility.

If the router isn't secured with a password then unplugging at night could be good to make sure no one is stealing bandwidth from you, or just to save on electricity..
