Okay. I'll take that as my action item. On to the understanding... 


I don't understand how someone can aribrarily choose which tandem an LRN hangs 
off of. Why aren't they forced to keep an LRN attached to whatever tandem 
handles a given incumbent rate center? In my situation, 815-901 is in DeKalb. 
DeKalb's tandem is... DeKalb. How can Comcast decide to throw it onto Dixon's 
tandem? I wouldn't have this confusion if Comcast's LRN in Dixon was from an 
NPA-NXX assigned to Dixon.

You either need to connect to the other tandem or pay another carrier to get 
you there. It is the responsibility of the originating carrier to get the call 
to the terminating carriers switch. Depending on the call volume you should 
probably just route through your LD carrier

I drew a picture, hoping it would clear things up a bit. 

Through my switch, we're trying to call a number in a block assigned to 
Sycamore, with an LRN in a DeKalb number block, but the common tandem operator 
is telling me that the LRN actually lives on a different tandem.

I thought you had to be on the same tandem to port a number, but with what our 
tandem operator (Frontier) is telling me, this isn't the case. 

Comcast ported a number from us in town A. The LRN they pointed to is based in 
town B (per TelcoData). The tandem generally used by carriers in both towns is 
based in town B. Naturally, we send traffic to that tandem. 

The operator of that tandem is telling us that the LRN is actually homed off of 
a different tandem in our LATA (operated by CenturyLink) in town C. 
Unfortunately, I can't corroborate this information with TelcoData the only 
rate center I see off of that tandem in TelcoData is an AT&T town next door. 

Where can I read up authoritatively on the porting requirements that would 
apply to this and related bits of info I should know? 

I'm checking on our LERG access as I know that has the authoritative 
information, but I don't have that access at the moment. Maybe we're not 
subscribed to it. 

Number NPA-NXX in town A:

LRN NPA-NXX in town B: 
https://www.telcodata.us/search-area-code-exchange-detail?npa=815&exchange=901 
Tandem in town B:

Tandem in town C:

Thanks.
