I've seen this quite often on the 3 mobile network recently. I can have blistering performance for web traffic, speedtest results in the order of 10Mb/s but throttled ssh sessions to the point I can't even use an interactive shell.
Sounds very similar doesn't it!
Generally for public wifi services like that my first step is to run up a VPN and route all my traffic through it as I just don't trust the operators (or the other users). Though that can mean you struggle even more with performance in some cases, most public hotspots do seem to work ok with it.
I'll have to look into using VPNs I think. Are there any good tutorials around?
