I went from 0.3Mbps on T-Mobile to 50+ Mbps with this; on providers that limit hotspot speed by examining TTL, this can be an effective way to get around it.
(They assume if they see TTL as one lower than expected, data is passing through a hotspot/phone instead of directly from the phone.)
sudo sysctl -w net.inet.ip.ttl=65
When done, switch it back:
sudo sysctl -w net.inet.ip.ttl=64
