Fixed...
sorry this response took a while. Yes i did downgrade the satellite first (MS60) then the router second (MR60). After both updated i did a 30-30-30 reset a couple times as well as a couple factory resets. After all this, i was able to connect to the internet but for some reason im still having some issues with the satellite.
When i login into my router it shows that the satellite is connected and i have blue LEDs on both devices, i thought for S**ts and giggles i would try to reconnect the satellite. As i press the sync button behind the satellite and then hit the sync on the router (physical or on the screen) 9 times out of 10 the sync will just timeout (router and satellite LEDs still show blue after timeout). I may have been lucky once or twice but even when the sync does not timeout the LED on the router is blue while the one on the satellite keeps blinking white. That happened i beleive twice only but every other time the sync just timesout.
I mentioned this as well but im not sure if all this has anything to do with my very very very unstable and inconsistant internet speeds. All i can say for this is before this whole firmware issue, ive always had very constant speeds across the board. I have not moved the location of either the satellite or router and have not messed with any of the wiring. I pay for gigabit internet service but am not achieving anything close to it either wired or wireless connected.
Ive opened a ticket with netgear in hopes i may get my warranty honored before it expires and waited 4 days for them to email me back a series of questions that i have already answered. (I just responded today with a very very disappointed response and will update people on this once i receive one)
At this point i just dont know whats going on with this unit now. Ive had an unstable connection to the internet ever since and im on my last limb with netgear at this point.
I do not know if this is normal or usually happens but is my topology suppose to look like the picture I've attached? Cause I do not think the R7500v2 is a mesh satellite.. never use to show that before.
I've also been reading people talking about double NAT but would that matter if the firmware was reverted? And is it normal for a firmware upgrade to do things like this? Cause I've never ran into issues like this before

There seems to be a NH app issue regarding the display of the MS icon.
Double NAT deals with your ISP modem having a built in router and having the MR router online at the same time.
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
You might want to revert to v116 FW has others have posted that using v122 causes more problems.

Asking for someone confusedThe update to FW 1.1.6.122. has really messed up my system. It ran an auto update so could not choose .. I do not know how to disable that. The 3 sattelites keeps jumping off the system and changing from blue to red light. Then a short time after blue again... Never had those issues before.
I'm not very technical so I do not know how to revert...And that should not be nessesary.. Netgear come on!!
Furthermore my MR60 sometimes jumps off the Internet. Never had that issue before either..
hopefully an Update will be released soon.
Other problem is that In app and in the router configuation it does not see the sattelites. That worked yesterday.
I am starting to hate this product that I paid that much money for.
Any idea when the FW update will come ??
I did a total reinstall of everything... but still these issues.
v122 isn't recommended and posted about that in this thread. Users should revert back to v116 on there systems.
NG doesn't post if or when new FW will be forth coming.
