Router Upgrade: Got Same Exact Router

Hi,

I got a prompt within the My Xfinity app that my router was eligible for an upgrade. I happily accepted; they sent me a package, but inside the package was the same exact router as I had before (an XB3). Was this package sent in error? Or was the upgrade prompt a bug? Or does the new router differ in some invisible way such as firmware or ?

Update:

Customer service confirmed that I was not in fact due for an upgrade, which leaves the only conclusion, that the upgrade prompt was caused by a software bug. I returned the duplicate modem to an Xfinity store at no cost to me.

Concern moved here to the Customer Service help section for greater exposure to Comcast corporate employees (The Digital Care Team) for assistance.
