How to simultaneously test the work of two Internet providers?
It so happened that within a month 2 Internet providers will function in my apartment (each on its own router provided by the provider).
I want to test both of them during this month, compare and, as a result, stop at the one that performs better (higher speed, better quality, more stable connection, fewer breaks, etc.).
Doing it manually (connecting to the first network, testing the speed, reconnecting to the second network, doing the same and doing this periodically for a month) is labor-intensive and very unremarkable.
Ideally, I see it for myself like this:
Choose 2 places in the apartment, test first the first, then the second.
Put your laptop / smartphone on charge, connect to the first network, run some program to collect statistics and leave it for a week. Then reconnect to the second network and leave for another week. Then move it to the second place in the apartment and test both networks for another week.
After 4 weeks, collect statistics and see what happened.
You can probably do this at the same time, but I would not want to purchase additional wi-fi adapters, routers, etc.
There is a laptop (win10) and a smartphone (Android 4.4.2) for this task.
Thank you in advance!

You suffer from nonsense, I'm sorry.
Providers have some kind of SLA, any of them cannot just provide a bad channel with breaks and losses, this is usually an exception to the situation.
Go for the one with the best value for money.
Your decision, based on, say, a random failure on the backbone of one of the providers, is no more reliable than a simple random choice.
