Busho, you have my sympathy! The only way I got it to work was by asking the brilliant company I got it from to send me a replacement NVR that they knew was already working on Goolink.

Thanks for your reply pen but it works on a p2p basis so manual port forwarding isn't necessary. The same applies to using a DMZ.

I have a solution now, the issue was due to the NVR having an ID that had already been registered on another account due to some administrative errors by the manufacturers.

Thanks to everyone one who offered advice.

No, the Goolink App asks for the Device ID of the NVR not the IP address of where to find it. It's the P2P version of the App.

Before you can use the App remotely you have to first register your NVR at http://www.goolink.org. There you will see that to register the NVR you also have to enter the device ID not the IP. That's what I'm having the problems with not the App.

Yes, that's the App, but to get it to work remotely i.e. when the mobile isn't connected to the LAN via Wi-Fi, you have to register your NVR on the goolink.org website first - this is the bit that doesn't work.

It's the XRN1609.

Thanks for your reply.

The manufacturers instructions explain this is how to view the NVR from an Android device remotely using their icloud P2P platform which is activated by registering with goolink.org

Has anyone recently managed to successfully register an NVR on www.goolink.ork? I am trying to do this with my new XVision NVR but every time I enter the details and hit the "Add" button it comes back with the error "Notice : Wrong ID, another one please!". See attached file...

After pulling my hair out for several days I thought I'd test the site by requesting a forgotten password for my account - let's face it it doesn't look the most professional website I've ever seen, in fact, it looks like some loner techy geek has set it up in his mum's spare bedroom. Anyway, I followed the usual method, entered my username and email address and pressed "Sure" on the "Retrieve password" page. The reply came "Mail sent successfully, please check!". Well, I've been checking for the last 2 days and no password has been forthcoming. Which, I think, proves my worst fears.

Is this an authentic site? Has anyone ever registered an NVR successfully? Your experiences would be most appreciated. Better still, if you could tell me where I'm going wrong I would be forever in your debt.
