Also didn't work for me on Firefox/Linux, between 2 tabs.



Hmm, maybe this is a classic "didn't bother testing on Firefox" situation. I wonder if anyone on a different OS can confirm.


I developed it mainly on Firefox on macOS. I'd love to figure out why it didn't work for you. Do you get anything on about:webrtc while trying to connect?


Thanks for the reply. I did the following for you:

1. Opened about:webrtc, clicked "start debugging".

2. Opened a WebWormhole on one tab.

3. Copy / pasted the code into WebWormhole on another tab. Got something like "invalid key".

4. Try again steps two and three. Got endless "connecting" message this time.

5. Stop debugging. No log file /tmp/WebRTC.log was created, so I clicked "save page". Used sed to replace my public IP address with x.x.x.x and uploaded here for you:

I hope this gives you enough information to fix the problem. I'd like to be able to use these tools too. I suppose it could be addon related, but another user confirmed the problem for Firefox / Linux. It would be useful to be able to detect various problems and report them to the user instead of hanging on "connecting".
