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.

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.

Typically, you can check to the local calling guide and if
the rate center with the numbers is local to a rate center
your providers are in, you should be good to go. YMMV.

*Subject: *[WISPA] Number's that can't port to VOIP
We 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?
