With anything that is good comes the bad side and prepaid internet is no exception. Here is a list of the disadvantages of prepaid internet:

1. It is slow and not up to par with broadband or dsl connection. Its standard dial-up speed is only 56kbps making it painfully slow to view images or stream music or videos.

2. When you run out of prepaid internet, you need to buy another card or recharge your account or else you will not be able to continue with whatever you are doing. This is hard especially if there is only little time left in a file you are downloading.

3. Forgetting or losing your access number is another big problem. Once it is gone, you will not be able to use the card anymore.

4. It is not economical if you are a heavy internet user. A montly plan is more advisable than using prepaid cards.

Now that you know what prepaid internet is, here is a list of its advantages:

1.) Prepaid internet is most suited for a light internet user – one who occasionally just logs in to check the email or the weather.

2.) It is also helpful for travelers as all you need is a phone line to access the internet. Wherever you may be, you can easily access the internet.

3.) It is also good for people with credit problems as you get to monitor and budget how much you will spend on minutes to surf the internet.

4.) Last but not the least, it is a good way for parents to monitor and control the internet usage of their child.
