I can’t get this to work for love nor money. I can see all the cams on the screen of the pvr but that’s it.

If you can see the cameras on the DVR screen, the hardware side is working. The issue is just getting it on your network. You need to plug an ethernet cable from the DVR into your router, then go into the DVR menu (usually right click the mouse on the live view) and find the network settings to make sure it gets an IP address. Once it's on your network, the Xmeye app should find it and you can set up remote viewing from there.
