The Puerto Rico Telecommunications Regulatory Board has set the ball rolling on an initiative to gather data from the island’s broadband providers to define the sector’s contributions to the economy, with results expected to be ready in a year, agency President Javier Rúa-Jovet said Wednesday.
Telecommunications provider Claro announced Monday that some 592 residents of the Jobos, Palmas and Pueblito del Carmen sectors of the southern town of Guayama will now have access to broadband and all of the services associated with the technology.
Critical Hub Networks announced Thursday that the Puerto Rico Bridge Initiative has interconnected with the Florida Internet Exchange (FL-IX), a move that improves access to Internet content for Puerto Rico broadband users.
