Once it's ported, will my Fusion service get disconnected automatically?

Unlike AT&T, who will cancel your phone (and DSL) when you port your number out, Sonic will assign a new phone number to your existing Fusion service and it will continue to work as before, except with a new phone number.

If you really want to cancel your Fusion Voice/DSL service, you'll need to call support to do so.

Just curious, how long would it take to port the number from Sonic to Ooma?

That would depend upon the winning carrier. Losing carriers release numbers for porting within one day.
