Now that your VPN setup is complete, we will move to the CallerDesk platform to register the agent for WebRTC.

The important thing to note is that your agents need to connect to the VPN server every day before starting their calling process. And if at any time they face any issue in calling, then the first thing they need to check is if their VPN is active and connected. A stable Internet connection would make sure that your calls go uninterrupted.
