I do not think that this message has any relationship to the box freezing a lot.

What I guess this message means is that most cable devices store in memory information about possible channel spacing, the max and min possible downstream frequency and the frequency of the downstream that they last found. If this memory doesn't make sense when the box boots up, it logs this message and has to search the entire frequency spectrum again for the downstream. Once it has found the downstream, it shouldn't make any difference to how well it functions online, it just affects the time taken to boot up. So I think you can safely ignore this message.
