" I " can connect and interact with MySQL through phpMyAdmin while on 
the same machine they are running on while the machine is not connected 
to the network.
" I " cannot connect with with MySQL (access denied "root or jon" 
@192.168.1.***) while on the same machine they are running on while the 
machine is connect to my home network. (through wireless access).
I have tried adding GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES on db.* 
"root@192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0" and GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES on db.* 
"jon@192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0"
