SMS relay ios8.1 not working

22-10-2014
I have an iphone6 and an ipad2 both have io8.1 installed, both are on the same wifi network, and both logged into the same icloud account.

I have gone into
settings
messages,
but I do not see any option on how to turn on this feature.

Any hints or tips, many thanks

Make sure your Mac, iPad and iPhone are all connected to the same Wi-Fi connection.
Make sure all of the devices are logged-in to the same iCloud account. You don’t want to be receiving your father’s phone calls, do you?
Starting with your iPhone first – and this is important, because I did it backwards and messed everything up – open Settings > Messages and tap “Text Message Forwarding.”
Choose the devices on your home network that you’d like to receive SMS messages on – in this case, I chose my MacBook Air and my iPad.
You should receive a code on your iMac and iPad.
Enter that code into the prompt on your iPhone.
