Please offer your suggestions. Please keep in mind QOS is my biggest concern.

I understand that QoS is important to you, but remember there is no QoS on the public internet!

1. A single port connected to one switch is fine, you don't need to connect each switch to the firewall.

You may never experience congestion on your LAN, but I would enable qos anyway. Using auto-qos would probably suffice in your environment. Search Cisco for auto qos and you should find some examples.

You don't need someone on site to configure this stuff, a good engineer could do all this remotely.
