What error message do you get when you try to connect?
And MySQL is accepting connections through the same port and you've added you IP to the allowed list of hosts?

And your personal and/or server firewalls aren't blocking the connections?

Hi,

Was there ever a follow-up to this? I have exactly the same problem now and it so frustrating as I have a customer who uses MySQL Administrator.

I get exactly the same error, I have also added my static IP addresses from my ISP and I have spoken to my host who has added my IP addresses to the firewall.

I am at the end of my tether now, I can do no more to try and make it work.

Cheers,

Bret

Generally if you can't connect to something either it's not working or it's being blocked somewhere along the way.

First make sure the service is running.

Then turn off ALL possible firewalls along the way.
