I have been waiting a while for WebRTC as a way to temporarily scale up some callers (at home, on demand) when needed. I have been using a fairly reliable IAX2 web client but would like to abandon it due to it's security problems, compatibility and setup issues.
WebRTC looked like a perfect replacement years ago, then months ago, then lately... each time I revisit, it seems to get a little closer and a few steps backwards. It seems like there are compatibility inconsistencies when I try to get it running (Firefox vs Chrome)... My hope was to use Chrome on Windows/MacOS but I can't even get the WebRTC dialer to show in the drop down menu... but in Firefox, it is there... and I can make calls! Yeah!... but, I can't receive calls? odd...
Anyways, I realize that WebRTC has been a b*tch to implement and has gone through a lot of stages... and the web browsers have been moving targets in trying to keep things running, reliably/consistently... I very seriously tip my hat to the folks fighting this battle...
I imagine that I am doing something wrong, in which case I will start a thread asking questions, but I have to ask if WebRTC on FreePBX is going to be a constant battle? Are others using this with dedicated callers remotely using a web browser and headset? What browser(s)/OS? Good / bad?
