Can't connect to mySQL database

Hi, I can connect to my MySQL Database if I use my own PC, but when I try to connect to my database using my webhost it says that

Can't connect to MySQL server on '106.187.38.201 ' (4) although everything seems okay, I tried traceroute = OK then mtr –report = OK although there is a 10% loss?

Is there anyway I can do to let this IP: 184.107.173.146 can connect to my database?

does the user in mysql have the ability to connect from the other IP? most guides will have you setup localhost only.

You may be better off doing an ssh tunnel instead of adding access to that IP

Yes, in fact I can connect to my database using mySQL Query Browser. I don't know how to use ssh (Noob :cry: ).
