test router speed

I want to compare the performance of two routers I have.

Is there a way to test their throughput, or other specs?

I've got a PC and a laptop on the LAN, so I so I could send files from one to the other, but is there a way to automate and measure this? Using an external "speed test" site will introduce Internet randomness, and besides my Internet connection is not blazing fast at the best of times.

Send a large file from one computer to the other and time it. Internet speeds are all way too slow for this type of measurement.

Won't that only test the throughput of the integrated ethernet switch?

And take it to the limit one more time...
