Hello everyone!

I'm working under a University (Monterrey Tec) Intranet environment.

I've instaled MySQL Essential 5.1.32 win 32, in two Windows XP (SP3) computers. Each of one have differents root's passwords, differents databases.

I can establish a successful connection betweem them under Intranet environment. (ex. 10.16.144.158 IP address).

But, I can't When I try to create the same connection through Ethernet and the following message appears:

Could not connect to the specified instance
MySQL Error Number 2003
Can't connect to MySQL server on '131.178.135.38' (10061)

When I try PING option Request time out is the answer.

As well as I tryed with db4free.net, and InMotion Hosting Inc. MySQL Server... with similar results.

I suppose, University DHCP Server is the issue... If really is, I don't know how to resolve it.

a - If DHCP, if the issue: Which is the solution?
b - Could be exists other possible issues?

I like work. Then just give me the guides I can do the rest.

Hopping yoour soon answer!
