'Cannot access wp admin on another computer in local network

I have created a wordpress website on a wampserver 3.2.6 and wanted to access the website, as well as admin panel from another device(pc) on a local network but I get an error (err_refuse_to_connect). I have read some topics and tested some solutions and it partially works. The page loads when I type ip address of the server where the website is, but only text loads, without images and I cannot access the admin panel. I have configured httpd-vhosts.conf file like this:

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName localhost
  ServerAlias localhost
  DocumentRoot D:/wamp64/www
  <Directory "D:/wamp64/www">
    Options +Indexes +Includes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
    AllowOverride All
    Require all granted
  </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Also I have created a rule in firewall to allow inbound connections on port 80 and added ip address of a computer I want to connect in hosts file. Is there any simple and clear solution for this?

Solution 1:[1]

Change your wordpress setting's URL to a Local IP address.

localhost will always goto 127.0.0.1 but I doubt
