1-Does not limit the scope of broadcasts
2-Does not scale to extremely large networks
3-Buffering introduces store and forward delays - on average traffic destined for bridge will be related to the number of stations on the rest of the LAN
5-Bridging of different MAC protocols introduces errors
6-Because bridges do more than repeaters by viewing MAC addresses, the extra processing makes them slower than repeaters
7-Bridges are more expensive than repeaters
