Anytime a new technology debuts, there are bound to be a few bumps in the road - it's inevitable.

One of the first of such bumps surfaced in Bahrain recently, as it was realized that frequency interferences between WiMAX broadband towers and TV broadcasts are becoming more and more of a problem. The C-band frequency is used for both satellite TV, and many customers are losing service as various providers start installing their WiMAX networks in the area. Television companies have appealed to the government at last year's ITU World Radio Conference to prevent the unrestricted development of WiMAX networks, but to no avail.

What is the fix for such a problem? Are these poor customers forced to choose between television and high-speed internet?
