Replacing N600 Router for VOIP
Looking for recommendations on replacing my N600 router which i use in my small office for WIFI and 3 VOIP phones. The N600 allowed me to program QoS for the phones. Is there a new net gear model that is similar?

N600 isn't a Netgear model number. It is an ancient speed measure that dates from around 2010. There have been many new wifi standards since then.
The N600 allowed me to program QoS for the phones. Is there a new net gear model that is similar?How fast is your Internet connection? N300 routers date back to when Internet connections couldn't handle all the traffic.
Any newer Internet service will probably be fast enough to handle all the traffic without having to mess around with QoS. Indeed, speeds are often so high that the advice is to turn off QoS because it slows down the router.
Try plugging your needs into the filters on the product pages:

Then check back here for reports on the things you are considering, but remember that people turn up in this community with problems, not compliments. So look at reviews on Amazon, for example.
