Very rarely will you be able to connect to a database remotely. Try to use HeidiSQL to make an authentication attempt towards the database. You can also scan the host on port 3306 to see the status of that port. Is there an error code or was it just that error?

That error, and the port 3306 is open

i know i checked ports

Code 
PORT     STATE SERVICE

21/tcp   open  ftp

22/tcp   open  ssh

53/tcp   open  domain

80/tcp   open  http

106/tcp  open  pop3pw

110/tcp  open  pop3

111/tcp  open  rpcbind

143/tcp  open  imap

443/tcp  open  https

993/tcp  open  imaps

995/tcp  open  pop3s

3306/tcp open  mysql

3690/tcp open  svn

8443/tcp open  https-alt

but url:3306

says that i have no permission to connect this MySQL from IP "MY PORXY IP ADDRESS HERE"

Its probably whitelisted so only they can access it, or it only accepts connections from localhost.
