I'm running MySQL Server 5.5.29 on Ubuntu Server 13.04

I have a created a user with a wildcard host access % and given him various privileges.

However, whenever this user connects from 194.182.245.61, a new user account is created for that specific IP address with no rights and he is unable to exercise his privileges.

When he connects from other internet connections, such as his home IP, it works just as it should.

Why does this happen and how can I stop it from happening?
