What is a potential disadvantage of using a Personal Hotspot?

A potential disadvantage of using a Personal Hotspot is that it may have limited connection speed when multiple devices are connected. This is primarily due to the fact that the mobile data connection that the hotspot relies on has a finite amount of bandwidth. When multiple devices share this connection, the available bandwidth is divided among them, which can lead to slower speeds for each device depending on how many are connected and how much data each is consuming. This can result in buffering or delays, particularly with activities that require higher data transfer rates, such as streaming videos or online gaming.

In contrast, a Personal Hotspot does not ensure complete data security, as it broadcasts a Wi-Fi signal that can be accessed by nearby devices if not properly secured with a strong password. It also does not require permanent installation, making it more flexible and convenient for temporary use. Additionally, it can connect devices through Wi-Fi and sometimes Bluetooth or USB, not being limited to only USB connections.
