Well, I would think you should use the scanner in question as it may be
sending a malformed packet or some other sequence of data thats shutting
down the router, from there you could narrow it down to see what exactly is
causing it if its not just exhausting the router. But to answer your
question here are some basic Stress testing utilities that alot of people
use. Take your pic, it all comes down to preference.
