I use cox in N.O. and never have this happen (unless my power goes out in my house). This email is being sent out that way now.
Considering the connection never drops between you and your gateway but it does drop between the gateway and your office, I don't see how you can point at cox as the problem. (not that they'd help you anyway). The portion where you're losing the connection is inside the LAN. You're not losing the part of the connection that runs over cox. Run ssh verbosely and see if there's some hint in the output when the connection drops (ssh -V) what versions of ssh do you have on the firewall and your office box?
