How hard to bump ping count

how hard would it be to bump ping count to say upto 50 pings isp is wanting extended pings for diagnostics

On where? In the GUI?
If you need ping to run that long, run it from ssh.
If you really don't want to run it from ssh, you could use:
ping -c 50 x.x.x.x
From Diag > Command, but I wouldn't recommend that either.

in gui
in ssh or comand how do i ensure it goes out the correct gateway on a multi gateway system ? -
When selecting an interface in the GUI, it only adds the -S x.x.x.x parameter to ping to set the source address of the packets.
So:
ping -c 50 -S x.x.x.x y.y.y.y
Where x.x.x.x is your WAN IP, y.y.y.y the target
