Some words are both adverbs and prepositions (e.g, below, before, in, through).
Some words are always or almost always prepositions (at, for, with).
Some words are adverbs that cannot ever be prepositions (then, there, later).
That being said, there are many more prepositions that can be adverbs than there are adverbs that can also be prepositions.
