Hello,
Currently I can connect database through local area network by using IP address on the SQL string. Then I read about security things that it require ssh/tunneling ? I also wanted my computer can connect to mysql database server not only through LAN but also through the Internet.

So, I started to googling but can't find any good answer. I read some from vbmysql.com but when I tried, it fails. Especially in there it doesn't stated what had to install / add reference, etc. Quite confusing.

For example :
I think it should be like this ?
My Computer --> My ISP --> the Internet --> Database server's ISP --> MySQL Database Server.

Hopefully, Someone can give me a good answer and sample code here.

Thanks
