Doesn't seem to work with robot on local network #30

Closed nickvaras closed 4 years ago

nickvaras commented 4 years ago

Even when trying the demo page, I can see topics if running a local rosbridge server on same machine (127.0.0.1), but not a robot in the local network, for example 10.66.171.50. The dashboard banner goes green but gets stuck in "Loading" with no further information.

Correction to the above. It seems to work only when running a simple server on my laptop, but when I plugged a monitor to the robot (so the ws server lived on 127.0.0.1:9090) and tried to open the web demo, I got the same result, i.e., got stuck in the "loading..." bubble.

https:// to ws:// is disallowed by default on firefox.

Go to firefox's about:config and toggling network.websocket.allowInsecureFromHTTPS to true
