internet access can be an essential tool for some people. It can even be a necessity for some careers. However, sometimes the price of internet access can be prohibitive and even detrimental. Here are some ways to save money and still have access to the internet.

Many different telecommunications companies offer package deals. They will bundle phone, cable and internet into one single low cost service. This can save a lot of money, but you will have to weigh the advantages and disadvantages of switching over to just one company for everything.

There are several low cost internet providers who provide dial-up access still. While it is much slower than DSL or other types of broadband access, it is a very low cost option. Most of these companies are local only, so it may take some research to find them.

If you have a wireless card in your computer or laptop, see if you can split internet access with a neighbor. You can split the access costs and share the wireless connection.

Finally, if you are in a larger city, it may be possible to not have to pay for internet at all. Many cities are providing free wireless internet for their area and you may be able to use that exclusively to avoid having to pay for your own separate router. You can also check and see if there are any public hotspots near you that you can access from your home.

For those in more rural areas, it may not be easy to find an inexpensive way to access the internet, but it may be worth it to check for wireless networks that you might receive and check for package deals from larger national providers.
