I've read that it can be tricky replacing the router with FTTH (FTTP) setups, he'll probably need to contact the service provider for advice on what settings to use on his new router.
Some providers don't allow it as it makes troubleshooting difficult for the technical help bods with non proprietary equipment.

Clive:
Thanks for that advice Dave.  He's coming home tomorrow evening for a long weekend with No.1 grandson so I can discuss it with him further then. 

Clive:
In conclusion to this thread, I suggested that he changed his router channel and gave him a link to scan all the connections in his vicinity.  Almost all were on the same channel so he switched to an empty one and it's made a huge difference to his speed.
