I got one of these Samsung LTE hotspot.
Not surprisingly it has huge bloat and a stupid http proxy
that netalyzer claims rewrites images.
 
Bandwidth: Up 1.6 Mbit/sec Down 4.3Mbit/sec
Latency: 140ms 0% loss
Buffering: Uplink 5100ms Down 1800ms

How can the uplink side be so bad! 5 seconds???

Might even return it as defective. You can't even add a review on their
website. Probably they would end taking down like Apple.
