The only pre-req I see mentioned is the installation of luci-app-sqm which I have installed and configured.

I'm not sure if it's a problem with the installation script, or the documentation needs to be more descriptive about pre-reqs, or another step - but either way heads up! Thank you for the script - I can't wait to get it working!

Yes there are a couple of packages like bash and fping that are required. I removed the automatic installation of those on the basis that users may not like that. Yes the documentation should be updated to reflect these requirements.
