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
20 hours agoEarlier 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.

Me too. started about 15 minutes ago. I've gotten about 6 of these on the app on my phone.
I also noticed it very hard to log into the community here, a lot of 504 gateway timeouts.

Today I received multiple notifications on my phone as shown here. Any idea what is going on? Clicking on the notifications just takes me into the Orbi application Guest Network page, where there is no notification, alert or message about anything wrong. My guest network is set up and working.

Just got spammed with notifications from my router. First time it happens and it seems very weird. Security issue?
The notification subject is "Guest Wifi PN" and the message is "Guest Wifi test deep link".
Why did I get spammed with these notifications? I'm the only admin in my home, and I didn't touch the router interface for weeks.
