UK universal 2Mbps broadband use, which is set to be achieved in the country by 2015, won't be able to support advanced web functions, according to Rowland O'Connor, editor of Broadband-Help.com, a broadband provider reviews website.
"More sophisticated internet use such as reliable digital content streaming is not really feasible on 2Mbps.
"Unfortunately, users of the basic 2Mbps services will inevitably end up being left behind in this respect," Mr O'Connor said.
The expert also said universal 2Mbps broadband will provide "consistent, minimum standards of internet access" that will allow users to interact with basic applications such as email and web browsing.
In other related IT industry news, culture secretary Jeremy Hunt announced last month that the government will look to achieve a universal broadband service level of 2Mbps by 2015 rather than 2012 due to insufficient funding.
