However, now that I have it I can't seem to find the feature on the router's config menu. Am I missing something?!?!?

Quote Proceed as follows:
1 Browse to the Thomson Gateway Web Interface.
2 On the Toolbox menu, click Web Site Filtering.
3 On the Location bar, click Configure.
4 Make sure that the Use Address Based Filter check box is selected.
5 In the Action for Unknown Sites, select:
Allow as the default rule if you want to allow access to all web sites and manually specify which web
sites may not be accessed.
Block as the default rule if you want to deny access to all web sites and manually specify a number of
web sites that may be accessed.
6 Click Apply.
Or so it says in the manual.

That should take you to the attached page where you can set up filtering for web addresses of your choice.

(The router is in my parents home and I'm trying to control web site access for my nieces and nephews.)

But even if it is available under 'admin' that's of no use to me as I want to be able to enable/disable web-site access remotely - as far as I know I can only login remotely using 'tech' which doesn't seem to have the priviliges to access Parental Control.
Does anyone know if there is any way of logging into the router remotely using an ID that has 'admin' priviliges or equivalent?? I've tried creating IDs with 'TechnicalSupport', 'Administrator', and 'PowerUser' priviliges but can only seem to login remotely when using TechSupport rights.

You might have to use telnet access (or similar) to do so.
