Menu design

Why are there two Advanced Setup menus? This is just another example of poor engineering for the UX/UI:

The use of the word Advanced twice to refer to two different menus is confusing:

 

Advanced > Setup

and

Advanced > Advanced Setup

 

I was working with a support tech and he asked me to go to Advanced Setup. I went to the wrong one, because he was referring to the Advanced Advanced Setup. How much support time is lost because of a confusing menu design?

 

They could just as easily be General Setup and Detail Setup. But really, if it is the ADVANCED side of the interface, why does Netgear need TWO Setup pages?
