I got the same notice last night at 2:08 am. It's the second time it has happened since I got the Panoramic gateway (TG1682G) a few weeks ago. Not sure why the gateway would be detected as a device though. Here is the event log from my modem for this morning. Any ideas as to what it means.

Where do you find the event log? (I’m new to all of this). I was thinking an update sounds more likely since it’s done at night and the Cox rep did tell me they were running updates last night which is when I got the notification. Maybe since the updates are being pushed from another location it doesn’t recognize that as a known device. Do you also use the pods? Let me know if you find out anything else and I’ll do the same. Thanks for the info.
You can find the login info on the bottom of the gateway. Once you access the admin page, look for the troubleshooting tab. Logs are in there. This is assuming that you have the same gateway as I. I do not use any pods or extenders.
