Detailed explanation-2: -The WiMAX network has a much longer range than other wireless Internet technologies, with a point-to-point range of 30 miles. Even at these distances, it can maintain a performance of 72 Mbps, which is multiple times faster than a regular residential Internet speed.
Detailed explanation-3: -WiMAX operates in between 10 and 66 GHz Line of Sight (LOS) at a range up to 50 km (30 miles) and 2 to 11GHz non Line-of-Sight (NLOS) typically up to 6-10 km (4-6 miles) for fixed customer premises equipment (CPE).
Detailed explanation-4: -WiMax stands for Worldwide Inter-operability for Microwave Access. This technology is based on IEEE 802.16. It is used to provide higher data rates with increased coverage. It is based on MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) technology.
Detailed explanation-5: -WiFi is short-range technology. WiMAX is long-range technology.
