Hi Cathal, I ran into this a while back. My solutions wasn't the most elegant, but I just modified the FPing.pm file to manually include that "-t" argument. Look for FPing.pm in the probes directory (probably make a backup copy of the file before you change it). Look for where "my @cmd" is defined and add the '-t 1400' inside there (line 111 in SmokePing v2.0.7).
