The "root" mySQL user is limited to connections from "localhost" or 127.0.0.1. I don't use mySQL, and am unclear on what "%" might mean. If it means "anywhere", you should be able to log in to the "oem" mySQL user from anywhere.

However, your mySQL system may not listen for connections on all networks. I use PostgreSQL, and that doesn't open external ports by default.

Check your mySQL configuration file(s).
