Hi I'm new. I tried to search for an answer in the forum but I get overloaded with too many irrelavent results quoting whatever search words I use somewhere in the text. Using more specific keywords is impossible because I don't know what it's called I'm looking for.

I've a managed MySQL DB running on a shared hosting server. Mobile devices connect fine via a SSL webapp and they read and write the MySQL DB through PHP scripts which run on the same SH server.

I also have a Windows MS-Access client (the original database client) which also reads and writes to the MySQL DB via a ODBC connector though port 3306. (I believe non-SSL) This works fine too no problems and access is limited to fixed IP4 address(es).

This is what I'm looking for: I want to host a "proxy/relay/gateway/router" of some kind (on a fixed IP address I control) to work as an intermediary between the above MySQL server and an additional MS-Access client (identical except has DYNAMIC IP address). This whatever it's called does a kind of IP address translation because the second client has a dynamic IP address.

What is this 'proxy/relay/gateway' called?
