R7000 Remote Management Option not showing up under setup

I have an R7000 Nighthawk router and want to disable remote access. According to the router manual you select Advanced - Setup -Remote Management. When I go to Setup all I see is internet, wireless, wan, lan,qos, quest, and device name but not Remote Management. I am using my web browser on Windows 10 to access the router.

Any help with how I can turn off remote access would be appreciated.

Thanks

   Hmmm. It was there at ".42".

   I'd been avoiding that version for other reasons. Now you've
discovered another.

   Apparently, someone with too much idle time renamed the menu item to
ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Web Services Management

   When you get there, the page title is still "Remote Management", if
that's any comfort. Perhaps the best approach would be to think of it
as, "Whatever's below 'Static Routes'".

   The latest R7000 User Manual ("January 2019") still says "Remote
Management". And for extra "clarity", "Remote Access".

   More proof (as if any were needed) that no design is so poor that it
can't be made worse.

   Read it again? Try:
      ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Remote Management
not:
      ADVANCED > Setup > Remote Management

   Great design, isn't it?

  Thanks for the help. I changed the selection to Advanced > Advanced Setup but there is not a remote management option there. There are 13 options in the list but no remote management. I have looked at every category under Basic and Advanced and can't find remote management. Any other ideas?
