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.

Yes I'm getting the same message, I have no idea where it comes from but it's happening repeatedly in the last day or so.
If someone from netgear can just verify that this is legitimate then that would be great, why do I have to assume it's a likely bad actor.
cheers,
