+1 I want to know!
I'm betting it is the fact that Wireless Carriers were forced by the FCC to
interconnect in order to do this, and that in most cases, ILECs and CLECs
are not nearly so sophisticated, and therefore the process is wholely
manual.
Which means you have to wait for Susan to come in on her one-day-a-week day
to process ports manually, and if something doesn't quite match exactly,
Susan is to reject summarily.
I hate porting. It's great for business, but it is a horrible and
inefficient process in the US.

How do cellular carriers perform almost instant porting of number, and why
can't landline providers do the same? For example if I take my Sprint cell
phone to an AT&T store, and switch over to AT&T they can do this almost
instantly.
I met someone one time at a tradeshow claiming they could do same day
porting for landline numbers just as the cellular industry did, but I was
not sure how he was doing it or if it was a myth.
I know cell systems are more automated and require a pin.
