I have 600Mbts (measured by ISV) into the Orbi and connect my iMAC directly to one of the 3 LAN ports on the backside of the orbit and only measure 240Mbts. This is very strange and cannot be be cor...

What FW is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
Was QoS, Traffic Meter or Access control enabled on the Orbi router?
What browser are you using to speed test? Try Safari, FF or Opera
What speed test site are you using? Try your ISPs speed test site and speedtest.net
Do other wired PCs or laptops see the same results?

I have the latest firmware - V2.1.4.16. I have a Technicolor TG799vac Xtream router with a bridged connection to the Orbi that generates about 600Mbts. Traffic Meter is off, Parental Control off. The only QoS I have takes to speed test. Does this help?

You might try doing a factory reset on the Orbi and set up from scratch. This time, don't enable QoS on the Orbi, run a wired test.
So the Modem is in bridge mode?
Does the modem have a DMZ?

Yes port 4 (out of 4) of the TG799 is bridged via a DMZ function. Reason is that I did had an Apple Time Capusle and used NAT for access a Media Server. How do I deslected QoS? I cnat find anywhere in the GUI to do that.

There isn't a disable. The only way is to reset the Orbi and setup from scratch then this time, don't set up QoS on it. Run some tests.
