When it is The Internet:
It refers to a global computer network providing a variety of information and communication facilities, consisting of interconnected networks using standardized communication protocols.
Eg: The Internet is the most common means of communication in the 21st century.

In common everyday language, just use lowercase as you have done it in your sentence. No problem.
