I have mysql at 103.55.39.181 (served by an Indonesian hosting)
and my Fly ip address is at 66.241.125.118
Doing traceroute from the VM to the mysql, I got this
The database is UP and reachable from my local machine, yet I can’t Ping it from the Fly Machine
The hosting provider did traceroute from their side to the VM and able to reach the VM
Hi… I was able to ping that address from a Fly Machine in ewr (NYC), so you may have just ended up with an egress IP that has a low reputation with that particular provider, etc.
This is your ingress address, incidentally; on the Fly.io platform, that is distinct from the one that you use to make outgoing requests, 
. (This surprises a lot of people.)
I would try just making a new machine in a different, nearby region (e.g., syd or nrt) and see whether that fares better…
Hope this helps a little!
