This is a really nice overview of the nuances of WebRTC.

If you want to try this tech at a higher level, I maintain an experimental hobby project that attempts to abstract all the complicated parts of WebRTC into a simple API. Most importantly, it obviates the need to run your own signaling server by piggybacking on various public protocols like torrent trackers or IPFS to match peers. It's well-suited for quick projects/prototypes.

Trystero is magic. I am baffled that it doesn’t have thousands of stars on GitHub. I’ve used it in several projects and it Just Works. Thank you for the incredible library dmotz!
Woah! This is very cool I don't think I have seen it before.

This will be really useful to establish a connection in adverse situations. Try all the different ways until you can get through :)
