Do you have a problem that QoS could solve? Might be worth trying to troubleshoot that.
QoS was born in the days of slow Internet connections. Common thinking is that QoS is pointless if you have a connection of >300 Mbps. Some say 200 Mbps.
Regular advice in the community is that users should turn off QoS because it eats into prcessing power as the router had to manage the traffic.
