MAC Address

Can Cox see my Mac addresses? Do ISPs receive all Mac addresses used in my network?
I wanted to know if Cox can see the Mac addresses in my network. I know they can see IP addresses, but are Mac addresses included? What if I use a VPN?

Why does it show router as a connected device?
Arris TG1682G gateway for panoramic WiFi showed a device connected calledArrisTG1682G, device type - router, host name contains part of default WiFi network name but I don’t know what hostname is and that number isn’t anywhere on the gateway thing. Also the MAC address is same as hostname and nowhere on the gateway. My husband paused it because he didn’t know what it was and thought someone was on our network or we got hacked.

device names in mywifi.cox always need correcting
It's a good thing I keep a text file saved with the household devices and their corresponding MAC Addresses, because with each and every visit to mywifi.cox it is necessary to re-check, verify, correct, re-name and save (once again) the particular names on the devices. Unless there's a step or clue to this process that I'm missing, is it the same for everyone else?
