Answer 1

You can also just change the preferred network type to 2G.

Its not as fine-grained as throttling your bandwidth via the PC but its a lot simpler to implement.

On Android 5 Lollipop go to:

1. Settings
2. More
3. Cellular Networks
4. Preferred network type

You'll notice the change to a slower GPRS network as an E icon on the top status bar of the screen.
