Turn off WMM

Hello. I need to turn off my WMM because I see suttering when I use Airplay between my Mac and Apple TV. I have read that this may solve the problem. I tried to use the user manual for N450, but there is no WMM in the menu. Is there anyone who has solved this issue? Thanks.

       Which "the user manual"?  Which "the menu"?  Visit
    http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look for
    Documentation.  Get the User Manual.

       If there is no Setup > Wi-Fi Multimedia option (as described in the
    User Manual), then firmware updates may have changed the options.  Can
    you find anything about "Quality of Service" or "QoS", instead of "WMM"?

       A cable-TV ISP has complete control over the firmware of any
    modem(+router) on its network.  It's also possible that your ISP has
    disabled such features.

       Do both these devices use wireless connections to the modem+router?

       I've read things, too, some of which were more useful than others.
