If it's only the one sink, the clog is most likely occuring before the pipe hits the wall. Your best bet is to try and take the thing apart. The plastic bits are most likely not glued. You should be able to unscrew them and pull them apart then clean out that long black piece.

If that doesn't work you may need to hire professionals as the blockage could be between the wall and the place where the pipe connects to the larger main pipes. That's much more difficult to get at without professional equipment. Although unscrewing that long black piece could get you more access to the clog.

My guess is the snake you are currently using is not making that bend into the wall. You're just jamming it straight down and you're eventually running out of room to push.
