Mostly Paetec and Focal CLEC switches in various regions. Probably why they can't do proper LNP in some cases since neither Paetec or Focal have a switch in those regions.
Luckily we've got a pretty much idle Paetec #5ESS here in Providence that handles things quite nicely.
Vonage simply uses IP packets instead of copper pairs to haul calls to underutilized capacity on CLEC switches. Really elegant when you come right down to it. They completely bypassed the local regulatory environments.
