Answer 1

You can use followed 2 applications for your purposes:

• Use Connectify application to create virtual WiFi AP on your PC. Connectify link It will give you ability to manage traffic over virtual adapter.
• Download DummyNet open source program and install service to your virtual AP dowload dummynet

Now you can connect with android to your virtual WiFi AP and manage BW + packet loss + latency by using some scripts (single batch file *.bat). Here is example:

cd C:\ipfw3-2012\binary
@echo on
@set CYGWIN=nodosfilewarning

@ipfw -q flush
@ipfw -q pipe flush

set download="80Kbit/s"

set srcIp=111.111.222.222

ipfw pipe 1 config bw %download%

ipfw add pipe 1 tcp from any to any in

ipfw -c show
ipfw pipe show

It works great. Here is print screen:
