While I agree that all settings should be available on the device, I also dislike the "Simple/Advanced" system. My experience with applications that have such a menu system is that I usually activate the advanced menu the very first time because I want to try everything out and never switch back to simple mode. So I'm perhaps a user who needs to be forced to have a tidy menu ;-) We already have config file for the wps, I don't see any problem moving some other options to config files as well. A special cfg-editor plugin would be a good idea for changing the settings on the device itself. I foresee long discussions about which options should be kept in place... Andreas
