It doesn't help when you edit to replace the speedtest.net one, rather than adding the new one as new. Particularly as the two were from different servers.

If you're tethering via WiFi indoors it could just be conflicting with other WiFi networks.

If you can, try USB tethering.

All those look good, no?

Try them again at 2PM and 7PM when people are hitting the internet the most. Sounds like your WiFi in the house has interference, or it's a metal structure which is screwing the signal, or the signal drops enough bars to connect to a lower freq. LTE band which has a capacity issue.

The tests you quoted show there is no significant problem with the LTE signal, as the first is indoors with a USB connection.

It is the phone wifi hotspot that is providing the slow speed to the computer. Presumably just the phone that isn't powerful/modern enough.
