You can see whats in the menu by going to the Dlink support site and looking at the emulator for the routers and changing the browsers Style.

i explain the strategy of Dlink. Oops it don't work. Remove the link and hide the menu. Other brands, are willing to fix this. If you only take links away and let the b broken function stay in, you will getinto troubles.
But Dlink doesn't listen to that  ???

Well maybe theres a reason for that. I understand though, not sure why they hide items however from a developer stand point, they are probably using a template for these routers and it's up to marketing on what gets used and what doesn't, depending on the model and use of the router. So having one template for there FW is probably easier to use and manipulate. Just because it's hidden doesn't mean it was supported or meant to be functional in the first place for all routers.
