This problem is SSOOOOO annoying and makes it so hard to work from home. I am not super versed in some of the things mentioned but I was trying to roll back my firmware to see if that helped as well ...

SSOOOOO would be more helpful if we had more details of the following:
What NG product are you referring too?
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
What have you done to try to resolve this problem?
What Web browser are you using?

I am not super versed in some of the things mentioned but I was trying to roll back my firmware to see if that helped as well as deactivate the auto updating but I cannot find out how to do this. Can anyone provide some instructions to this only someone technical user? I am to the point of looking into a new router because this issue is such a headache.

Ok so we still need a model# of the NH router. From looking at the FW version you may have the R7900P, R7960P or R8000P?
What CAT# lan cable do you have between the modem and router? CAT6 is recommended.
Have you enabled IPv6 on the router yet?
