Just had a discussion on IRC again. Installing and running TURN servers is still one of the major blockers. https://www.webrtc-experiment.com/docs/TURN-server-installation-guide.html is not bad, but it doesn't explain much about the background and how to verify that your installation works etc

wish there were more support channels available. as newbie to STUN/TURN server, it is impossible to understand this from current few guides on line.

Has anyone tried Twilio's STUN/TURN service? https://www.twilio.com/stun-turn

They say you can just instantiate your RTCPeerConnection object with the config their API give you and things will just work.

you can do the same with our turn servers if you ask us for the secret and send us money... :-)

Expect an blog post from me on "it is not as simple as installing a TURN server" this week.

@fippo I hope it won't only say that it's not simple, but also how to do it properly :) Maybe then I'll finally add TURN server to sharedrop.io...

@feross I had no idea that Twilio has its own STUN/TURN service - looks pretty interesting.

@fippo looking forward!

@feross: https://blog.andyet.com/2015/01/14/turn-for-webrtc -- doesn't say how to do it properly (other than: invest alot of time in your ops infrastructure) though.
