All numbers can be ported, IMO. If you would like me to pull them for you

We've found that we can't get anything ported here in Alaska... something
to do with agreements that Alaska Communications Systems and GCI did.

Ah, the world-famous Kasson and Mantorville Telephone Company! :-) Those
tiny ones can be tough. They are in LATA 620 but subtend the Plymouth
tandem, which is in Minneapolis LATA 628. Odd, but there are a number of
those exchanges in the Rochester LATA. That tandem belongs to Minnesota
Equal Access, a sort of CLEC that runs a tandem on behalf of many small
ILECs. Maybe they could help you.
Their prefix codes are local but a CLEC generally needs an interconnection
agreement with them, and I doubt many have them. Just not worth the bother.
But I do see Mantorville numbers belonging to Sprint-CLEC, MCC, and
bandwidth.com. So they may have arrangements.

Those are Frontier Citizens, the old (not ex-GTE) rural ILEC. Portable
but not pooled. Both remotes of the Kenyon switch, on CLQwest's Owatonna
tandem. Jaguar Communications is the only CLEC with Claremont numbers;
Sprint and MCC have West Concord numbers.

This is the adjacent rate center to one of our main service areas, it is

As a general rule, any rate center's numbers can be made portable if they
aren't already so. It can worst case take six moths to implement. But
that was usually done long ago.
However, in order to port a number into a rate center, the carrier (CLEC)
needs connectivity to the tandem switch that serves that rate center, which
may belong to the ILEC in that rate center, or a third ILEC, not the one in
the bigger exchange next door. If you tell me the rate centers in question
I may be able to determine that for you. CenturyTel[/link] is notorious
for being uncooperative, hoping state regulators let them bend the rules
their way. And some rural ILECs think they're exempt from interconnection
rules, though they're not. So it would not be surprising if the underlying
CLECs just don't touch those RCs. On Thu, Mar 27, 2014 at 3:06 PM,

Subject: [WISPA] Number's that can't port to VOIPWe have a customer on
fringe of a rural Century Tel area and both of our voip providers came back
saying they were unable to port the number for us. Are there remote areas
where you still can't port a number? Is there a way to find out if anyone
can port this number? Like a master list or database I can search?
