According to Cloudflare Radar, Rogers BGP announcements spiked massively to levels 536,777% higher than normal (343,601 vs 64 normally) just minutes before the outage. I would not be surprised if this happened to be the culprit.

In the early hours of the morning around 2-3am my modem got hit with a configuration update that caused a DHCP release that wasn't renewed for about two hours, after rollback the connection was fine for 3 hours before this network wide outage.

Maybe a failed night time update was attempted again during office hours, I've heard daytime guys are still WFH and night shift is in building.

I expect we'll never get a real explanation. Rogers is notorious for withholding any type of helpful or technical information.
