What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Can you try a factory reset and setup from scratch, do not enable Armor or SPC and see if same thing happens?

Thanks so much for your reply! So the ISP doesn't provide anything, but here in Australia all HFC connections get this thing called the NBN connection box, that my Orbi is plugged into. Here are some details - https://www.commander.com.au/sites/default/files/2018-12/nbn-hfc-user-guide.pdf
I'll try your steps, what is SPC so I know not to enable it?

Ok, no router at the modem.
Keep us posted...

Thanks, sorry I'm not sure what you mean by no router at the modem. Isn't my Orbi the router? I'm not an expert with this stuff :(
Also with regards to your suggestion about disabling Armor and seeing if it happens again, how would I know if it happens because Netgear Armor is supposedly the thing that sends me the notifications on the app?
Aside from all this, any theories at this stage? While the outages are annoying, it doesn't bother me as much as not knowing. Is it likely just a false positive, any similar behavior like this? I know the latest Orbi firmware seems to have some issues. Thanks!!
