Looks like Cox is safe. Here is some info
The Heartbleed Bug is a serious vulnerability in the popular OpenSSL cryptographic software library. This weakness allows stealing the information protected, under normal conditions, by the SSL/TLS encryption used to secure the Internet. SSL/TLS provides communication security and privacy over the Internet for applications such as web, email, instant messaging (IM) and some virtual private networks (VPNs). http://heartbleed.com/
I did a scan at SSL Lab's website and looks like Cox's main sites pass. Try here.

I don't know how reliable "lastpass" is, but according to them Cox is "known to be vulnerable". I would use caution for now. Google also looks to be vulnerable.

What about my home wireless router? I just read that Cisco and Juniper networks state that the vulnerability extends int those devices too.

I almost wonder if this has anything to do with that mandatory password change about a month ago. They said it was from a security breach where they saw someone using a bunch of different users password. The one that caused the huge thread. If so, then Cox could indeed be vulnerable. FYI
