RBK53 QoS page is missing buttons/options, etc.
I set up my new Orbi RBK53 last night. I went to set up QoS and there's nothing on the page but a speed test. I found this thread being marked as "solved", https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi/QOS-issues-on-Orbi-RBK50-system/m-p/1555627 however, it isn't solved.
"Also QoS services are automatice. Once you do a speedtest with the Orbi router connected to the ISP modem/services, with out any other client devices connected to the router accept for one wired PC, and apply those results and reboot, the QoS for the system is automatic."
I can run a speed test, but there isn't a button to "apply" the results. As for the reboot... does that mean power off and power on? The only button on the page is to run a speed test.
Thanks for any help. I'm rather disapointed with my purchase due to the lack of polish in this area. Makes me wonder what else isn't polished with this product.

Orbi and some other non Orbi NG routers have this simple QoS where speedtest is done and from there sets up QOS automatically.
There is no advanced QoS features like some other routers.
If you need more advanced QoS featuers then you may need to find something else.
- I don't need any special qos features. However, I do expect there to be something to indicate confidence to the user that qos is active, whether it's a checkbox or a radio button or something like that.
Hello thisguy
What you are seeing on the QoS page is correct and there is no apply button.
