It’s the Samsung thing with the 4 blue lights, I think this:

It says compatible with Verizon 3G devices, so I’m assuming it doesn’t do
4G/LTE.

I don't think you can use data over it. What model is it?

Not really asking what Internet speed it needs to function properly, but
rather what you should expect to get on a smartphone connected to the Network
Extender and not using WiFi.
Not sure why someone would use it like this, maybe they don’t want to give
out the WiFi password.

I have a 10/2 and it works great. I have no idea why they would use it like
that though. I only use Wifi for data when I am connected to it. If you turn on
the phone WiFi it won't use the femtocell for data.

I thought these were only 3G and mainly for voice, assuming if you really
cared about data you would just connect directly to WiFi. I remember when my
smartphone speeds used to top out around 1M but I don't remember if those were
the 3G days or whatever was before 3G.
I have a customer on a 20Mx20M connection who put in a couple of these
microcells and is complaining about Internet speeds on their smartphones only
being around 1M, they called Verizon who blamed our Internet. Verizon also had
them test speed to internetfrog.com which gave significantly worse results than
speedtest.net. I swear the training for all microcell support reps is "blame
the ISP".
