Bandwidth Shared Among Users:
WiMAX’s drawback is that it distributes the bandwidth among users. This means, you will experience slow down when there are more uses in the base.
Power Intensive Technology
WiMAX is very power intensive technology and requires strong electrical support.
Limited Date Rate:
When compared to other modes of broadband connectivity, for example, fibre optic cables and satellite internet, WiMAX is still slow.
Speed Decrease over Large Distance:
Because of bit rate errors happening at large distance, WiMAX system is forced to use lower bit rates at these distances. This means less data transfer rate.
Rain can affect Connectivity:
As fixed WiMAX requires line-of-sight radio link, heavy rain can disrupt the entire link.
