Hello,

I was trying to establish a connection to an external IP adress. But when I enter the Ip and try to connect following error shows up. As you can see the IP is a different one.

Im probably blaming myself as a total scrub atm but I just realized could it be possible that the server denies my acces and im totally getting this error wrong?

Yes, you got the error message wrong, but I can tell you you were not the first one getting it wrong.

The ip is yours, and the user name is combined with your current ip when you connect to the server. In MySQL you can have different privileges for a user root@192.168.222.252 and root@192.168.111.1 or whatever.

You have a user called "root@%" that should apply ("%" is a wildcard) but "Using password: NO" means that you haven't typed any password.
