I've certainly rebooted my modem a few times since I've been here, and also reset (dump stored configuration) it a few times using the web UI. Same IP, as I understand things with OOL the IP leases are bound to the modem HFC MAC along with the device MAC of whatever's plugged into it. Since I'll be using the same router, I should be good. Slight follow up though. I hear boost allows an option to get a static assigned IP, will THAT change my IP? Or will it just take my IP out of the normal pool and more permanently assign it?

Thats a different service, and requires installation of a separate Cisco router that CV installs on your premises and is only available to business customers. But to answer your question -- if you were eligible to sign up for that and did so -- your IP would definitely change as youd be given a range of IPs from the static pool, not the DHCP pool which you have now.
