History

Telegraph service was inaugurated in 1869, responding to an 1864 order by Spanish Governor Felix Maria Mesian.[2] By 1872, the entire island had telegraph service as well as international connections to the rest of the Caribbean and Europe.[3]

The Puerto Rico Communications Authority (La Autoridad de Comunicaciones de Puerto Rico) was created with Law No. 212, on May 12, 1942. Five years later, the department was located at 1314 Juan Ponce de León Avenue in Santurce.[4]

Radio

The Edificio del Telégrafo in Santurce, Puerto Rico, was built in 1947.[4]

Television

WIPR-TV ("Wonderful Island of Puerto Rico") was inaugurated on January 26, 1949.[4][7]

Telephones

Internet

Hurricane Maria destroyed the internet systems in Puerto Rico in September 2017.[10] Then in 2019, the US Federal Communications Commission stated $950 million had been approved for the rebuilding and strengthening of Puerto Rico's and the Virgin Island's internet infrastructure.[11]
