You have to edit httpd conf and find this line  Listen 127 0 0 1 80  Then write down your desired IP you set for LAN  Don t use automatic IP  e g   Listen 192 168 137 1 80  I used 192 167 137 1 as my LAN IP of Windows 7  Restart Apache and enjoy sharing

Actualy you don t need an internet connection to use ip address  Each computer in LAN has an internal IP address you can discover by runing   ipconfig  all   in cmd   You can use the ip address of the server  probabily something like 192 168 0 x or 10 0 0 x  to access the website remotely   If you found the ip and still cannot access the website  it means WAMP is not configured to respond to that name   what did you call me  192 168 0 3  That s not my name  I m Localhost   and you have to modify        apache config httpd conf  Listen   80
