I agree, I wish they would change the QoS wording. It's a bit misleading.
I don't think NG will be supporting the more advanced QoS features on Orbi since QoS seems to be automatic in it's handling and runs behind the scenes. Something we don't seen on Orbi AC or AX systems.
I presume if you need more advanced features then you may need to find a router that supports this, like NGs R, RAX series routers.
I personally wouldn't connect a garage door to wifi. Most garages have remotes already. You could install a sheep wired AP in the garage which would be one suggestion.
Good Luck.

Well, one could put in power line adapters between the RBR and the garage and put in a cheap wireless AP there in the garage as an idea.
