FINALLY.
Really getting sick at WebRTC services that don't support TURN properly. And people with CGNAT or some type of symmetric NAT often have no choice.
Then half the people tell me it's not necessary, they never had any problems bla bla... well there's tons of people for whom it often doesn't work at all.
- lherman 2y agoYeah, if WebRTC is the only communication channel, TURN will be needed, especially doing p2p. LMK your experience if you have any questions, hit me up on discord @lherman_cs
- brian-armstrong 2y agoTURN does seem largely unnecessary. I think the issue is flipped - we'd be better off if people could stop building broken networks with bad NAT.
- lherman 2y agoThat would be ideal. But, I don't believe there is a strong incentive for many existing network to be upgraded without using NAT. In regards to TURN, it is used only as a fallback.
