As for why it was removed, I'd be willing to bet it was a security thing as the restore settings functionality could be abused to modify settings that you weren't supposed to modify.
Not very often (thankfully!), but with so many gadgets connected via wifi, it's a pain to add them one by one, as well as port forwarding and other settings. The backup took a few seconds and it was done.

I don't do a reset myself but if I have to call VM support, as I did on Monday, it's one of the things they ask you to do.

Oh well, I am one of the quite satisfied customers of VM when it comes to broadband, so I guess this is just a small thing.

Thank you for your reply.
