Never mind, I got it to work... In order to allow anyone from anywhere in the world to connect to your server using Wamp (remote connections) and access your www folder, you must do the following:

Open up the file: httpd.conf | Located in: C:\wamp\bin\apache\Apache2.4.4\conf

Then, go to line 58 and make sure it says

Code: Select all

Listen 80
After, go to line 215 and make sure it says

Code: Select all

ServerName 74.91.121.156:80
and replace the '74.91.121.156' with your own external IP.

Finally, go to line 268 and REMOVE the wording

Code: Select all

Deny from all
and remove the space there to make it look like:

Code: Select all

     Order Deny,Allow
     Allow from 127.0.0.1
     Allow from ::1
     Allow from localhost
	 Allow from 74.91.121.156
</Directory>
(Lines 267-273 after)

And it should work! You should be able to access your www folder from any computer in the world!

I've never used WAMP :/ I used real apache my first time setting it up on windows, WAMP must make changes like that assuming you won't use it publicly(and use it for local testing like XAMPP).

Glad you got it fixed :)
