Maybe there are other ways of achieving what you want.

I am performing certain tests on device side behavior when connected to routers at different DTIM intervals. By default routers come with DTIM set to 1.  I want to change it to 2 or 3 and perform tests on connected device side

    I remember seeing this on older generation routers from say 15+ years ago. I think its' mostly a automatic feature now that something isn't needed to be adjusted on home class routers anymore thus NG and others have removed that UI since so not supported as a UI feature anymore.
