Notification Message Quest Wifi Test Deep Link

I am receiving a notification message that reads, "Guest Wifi Test deep link".  Does anyone know what this means?

    Multiple Push Notifications

    Earlier today, Orbi App users were sent multiple push notifications about guest WiFi. If you received one of these notifications, you can safely ignore it. The notifications were sent accidentally during an internal test. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Hundreds of people are getting this Guest wifi Test Deep Link notification. What the heck is going on?

    I got the notification 5 times today so far. I do have guest wifi enabled. I have no idea what it means.

    Same here.  Gotten this 5 times this morning.  Guest SSID is enabled but no one is connected to it.  We are in a rural location so no one is around to be trying to connect.
