The lower tiers eg 30mb can lock onto any of the 4 channels. The IP won't change if the modem is switched on neither will the "channel" connected to. If there is work on the UBR a restart may be forced on the modem by VM to "realign" it.

30Mb is only available through a Pooper Hub, it uses channel bonding as well, only legacy 20Mb and 10Mb connections don't use channel bonding.
The channel connected to on the downstream can and does change with restarts, modems are allocated to channels by load, first they connect to the legacy VXR then are retuned to the primary channel of the overlay CMTS which then retunes them to the lowest utilised downstream in its group, so someone on ex-Telewest could easily bounce from 331MHz to 299MHz before finally ending up on 323MHz.
