You can use a "slow Internet connection" from a mobile phone (for example, GPRS). You must have a mobile phone that become a modem when connected to the PC and a carrier that provides that kind of connection.

For example, I can connect my LG phone in my computer and use a dial-up program (provided by LG) to perform a connection in TIM, my carrier. So, my internet connection is about 40kbps.

You will have a slow connection, but you cannot adjust its speed only with that.
