How do I disable these new device notifications?

Just yesterday, I started receiving notifications from the Orbi app when a new device connects to my network. How do I disable these notifications?

    Does this Orbi have Armor or Smart Parental Controls (SPC) enabled?

      Nope, unless what you see below for SPC indicates it's enabled? I didn't do that, so if it is, how do I disable?

    Try disabling notifications for the Orbi app under the phone notifications for installed applications.

      Well, I don't want to disable all notifications. I can't believe there's no option to disable this specific notification type.

        It's all or nothing. Seems to be something fairly new as I do remember seeing this as well and users have asked about this feature.
