CPC7 isn't a port it's just a pool of IP addresses. You could split the signal coming into your home to two cable modems, they can be on the same ports but take an IP address from a different pool so will have a different 'CPC' but share the same bandwidth.
not sure, I spoken to one guy over the phone, he was moved to overlay initially and then upgraded to 50mbit after he was told that would fix it, which it didnt. Then whilst still on 50mbit he got moved again and it was a lot better. So obviously he wasnt moved back to legacy as he is still on the 50mbit service so it could only mean a physical move of some sort, it also changed his ip address range.
