There’s nothing before the MR60. Been using it this way for almost 2 years and haven’t had this issue. Firmware version is v1.1.7.134

How do you access the Internet?
There is always something between a router and the Internet. A modem, a Gateway or an ONT, It may be hidden, but it is there.
Did you try this?

- Yeah I googled everythingi could think of. And called my ISP. no help. There’s a dish on the outside of my house aimed at the grain elevator, & then their line from it to this white thing that plugs in and that line goes into it and another comes out to MR60. Nothing has changed in the last 2 years that I’ve had this setup and now all the sudden I’m having strict NAT & double NAT issues. Doesn’t make sense to me but I also know nothing about this. Never had to worry about it.
- And this white thing is like the size of fun sized candy bar for reference? They told me it converts the radio frequency to Internet or something.
OK. Not your usual setup.
That is probably a satellite or mobile network. It isn't the usual stuff that comes down the phone line or over a fibre optic cable.
Quite how that works is down to whoever provides your Internet service.

If everything else works as expected, I'd suspect the Xbox. These things seem to cause all manner of problems.

How about the link I provided. That's where you will find local stuff about Netgear and the Xbox.You could also try a local search for your ISP.
