man ping

-w deadline
Specify a timeout, in seconds, before ping exits  regardless  of how 
many  packets have been sent or received. In this case ping does not 
stop after count packet are sent, it waits  either  for deadline  expire 
 or until count probes are answered or for some error notification from 
network.

-W timeout
Time to wait for a response, in seconds. The option affects only timeout 
 in  absense  of any responses, otherwise ping waits for two RTTs.
