I'm also looking for the QoS option.
I used to have a RAX12 and it had QoS. Since in our new home we have Cable internet, we purchased the BEST Netgear Cable moden, the CAX80. And it doesn't have QoS? In the flagship cable router/modem of Netgear? This is ridiculous.
Without QoS, if we can't throttle upload speed, uploads are often failing/breaking/disconnecting.
Please add QoS to the CAX-80. Every single router has it. Otherwise we'll be forced to chose a different brand.

"There was never actual QoS settings or feature (except Speedtest was labelled as QoS).
It was renamed to Speedtest in newer FW."

Maybe NG will relent and add it. Nothing we can do here in the forums.
Good Luck.
