Had to figure out how to install...
I copied the folder to my Pi using filezilla sftp (ssh file transfer protocol). sudo bash ./install didn't work... so it took some time to figure out it must be:

sudo python ./install

Would be better using file-extensions (install.py) and giving some accurate instructions for the install process.

The script unfortunately has a problem with checking the network connection.
I get the following error in the log - but I am definitely connected to the WLAN and have Internet.

As far as I can see, there's only the colorcode on the resistor that tells us the value.
As it's just a simple pullup, you can use any value between 1k ohm and 10k ohm. I'm using 10k ohm and it works fine. Maybe better add the value of the resistor in the text if somebody has no strong electrical background ;)
