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.

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.

Just got kicked out of my orbi admin account and it said I had too many login attempts and can try to login again after 30 minutes…
