This has been broken since version 1.0.5.106, late last year. There are a number of other threads on this bug on this forum (see below). I was really hoping that this new update would solve the problem, but it doesn't. I have gone though official channels to NG to report the bug and get it fixed, to no avail. 

My experience: the Advanced tab cannot be accessed using any browser in iOS or iPadOS. It cannot be accessed using Safari in MacOS. It can be accessed using Firefox on MacOS. Firefox on Mac is my workaround (it's how I updated to version 110).

i personally think that this is an inexcusably long time to have such a significant bug out in the field. I will never buy another piece of Netgear hardware.
