LTE

Given that we a laptop, ZTE MF820 modem and an LTE base station - what measurements can be made in order to test an LTE network? These are trivial: Upload speed [Mbps], Download speed [Mbps], Signal strength [dB] depending on the distance from the base station, Lattency [ms]. What about the security tests? Spectrum maybe? Is there any other, more advanced way to test the network? I dont have any special equipment other than a modem and PC.

Harisheldon (wiki answer) - random router discussion is not relevant to my question whatsoever.. what do you think my "question" is? I'm searching for an approach to test an LTE network.

No reason to snap, this is a place for sharing ideas and some friendly assistance, sometimes not always what we want. Also, we can almost say that your question falls in the realm of a homework question, an advanced one, but still a homework question none the less and those are not answered here.
