[smokeping-users] strange loss with Radius probe

I've been experiencing this strange behavior with Radius probe. I'm 
monitoring a Radius server using
3 different setups: one with 5 pings, one with 10 and one with 20. The 
strange thing is that I get significant
packet loss with the "5 pings" and the "10 pings" and NO packet loss 
whatsoever with
the "20 pings". Why could this be happening?

Here's the relevant part of the config:

++ RADIUS

menu = RADIUS
title = RADIUS availability
probe = Radius
timeout=10

+++ rad5
menu = rad
title = RADIUS availability
host = x.y.z.c
username = testuser
secret = ******
password = *****
port = ****
pings = 5
nas_ip_address = a.b.c.d
nas_port_type = x
mininterval = 2

+++ rad10
menu = rad-10
title = RADIUS availability
host = x.y.z.c
username = testuser
secret = *****
password = ****
port = ****
pings = 10
nas_ip_address = a.b.c.d
nas_port_type = x

+++ rad20
menu = rad-20
title = RADIUS availability
host = x.y.z.c
username = testuser
secret = *****
password = ******
port = ****
pings = 20
nas_ip_address = a.b.c.d
