Is there any way to do a WAN speed test within the asuswrt router?

I've got a router deployed at a remote site and I would like to be able to SSH into it and run a reasonably accurate WAN speed test. Is there any way to do this?
 
After you set up the ssh, you can probably use something like this (if wget is available on asuswrt, and /dev/null exists - points to "nowhere"; on linux, this command would do the trick):

Code:
wget cachefly.cachefly.net/100mb.test -O /dev/null

Obviously, you should always use a testfile that is in your area, and has a great connection.
