I also need this as a feature. Love the Orbi, but the admin options are still a bit lacking.

This is one of the features that's on my to-do list. Having said that, there are always tons of good ideas, and we have to make tough choices for each feature to make the cut on each release. One of the inputs I use is the Community. If this is important to you, please go vote for it.

I too work from home remoting into servers back at the office and need this QoS feature per device as well so I can set my laptop traffic to take precedent over the kids watching Netflix on their iPad. Where do we vote for this?

I'd also like to know where to 'vote' for this feature. I have a CPI security camera that keeps 'dropping' the wireless signal. I'd like to make it a higher priority than other items in hopes that this would no longer happen.
any advice from others?

Two comments.
1. Where do we go vote?
2. I appreciate that you read these forums.
3. We should not have to vote on fundamental features like QoS.
If anything, manual QoS should have been stock and auto QoS should have been an upgrade. For example, I also work from home and my VoIP phone should never take a backseat to video streaming (or anything else). Furthermore, since it is encrypted you cannot detect that it is VoIP which places it in the general traffic queues.- andreoasJul 11, 2017Tutor
Quick question on any updates on this. Is QoS priority by device already available for Orbi?
Is it available on the app?
Thanks!
