Install peer and peerjs from npm. configure the following on the client js file.

const peer = new Peer(undefined, {
  host: 'localhost',
  port: 5001,
  path: '/'
});

Then while the initial server is running. open another terminal and run the following

 peerjs --port 5001

voila, you have started peerServer and now you can obtain the peer.id.

There are some other ways to too. please refer to this link to explore those ways.

Yes, the problem is known.

The public server is not available at the moment (cracked by botnet). The maintainer has already reported the cause of the issue on github: https://github.com/peers/peerjs/issues/937#issuecomment-1077781924

There is also a small guide on how to deploy your own server through Heroku.
