I use SmokePing and fping as a probe. fping version is fping: Version 2.2b1 $Date: 1997/01/08 20:29:33 $

For all hosts it works fine except okimpan-gw.man.poznan.pl(150.254.240.81). This one responses for only 2 first requests, even if there are running two fpings in parallel:
weed> fping -C 5 okimpan-gw.man.poznan.pl
okimpan-gw : [0], 84 bytes, 2.02 ms (2.02 avg, 0% loss)
okimpan-gw : [1], 84 bytes, 5.79 ms (3.90 avg, 0% loss)
okimpan-gw : 20.2 57.9 - - -
while:
weed> ping -c 5 okimpan-gw.man.poznan.pl

As far as I know there is no firewall on okimpan-gw or between my host and okimpan-gw. From administrator of okimpan-gw (unfortunately it is not me) okimpan-gw is hardware router Linksys RV082.
