Setting up WAMP with Namecheap

I have my WAMP server up and working, but I want to be able to connect to it from other computers.

So:

1. How could I setup WAMP so I could connect to it from another computer in any way (be it with a domain or an IP)

2. How can I setup WAMP with my Namecheap domain (I already have all of my A-records completely set)

Connection from another computer.

The simple way is to set wamp online using the wampmanager menus [ wampmanager -> Put Online ]


If you namecheap domain is pointing to your IP and not their servers all you need do is

1. Make sure the pc running wamp is on a staic IP ( no dhcp ip allocation )
2. Port forward port 80 on your router ( portforward.com has lots of help for that )
