WampServer

Hi!

I have a vista machine with wamp installed. However, I would like to access it from all computers on my home network. I selected "Put Online" and typed my local IP into the address bar and it worked.

However, I then tried it from other computers I get a "timed out" error. I turned off windows firewall on the WAMP machine and then I could access it from the other computers.

Is there a way in which I can set certain local network IPs to be allowed to access WAMP through windows firewall?

Cheers!

Setup exception in firewall for http port 80 then anybody can access your server no matter local or global

I don't really want to have it set up globally. Just for local machines. Is this doable?

I connect to the internet through a netgear router. Would that prevent internet users form accessing it even if I set port 80 to being accessible through windows defender?

Then after setup exception in firewall, edit confil file to allow only certain ip to access your server

Alright, I think I found it. In windows firewall you can click "Change Scope" and set that exception to apply only to the local network. Then I don't have to do anything to router. Cheers.

Check Setup Local Access on my site
