If you have Windows on your PC
Open your hosts file with Administrator permissions, to do this right click on the NotePad icon, select 'Run as Administrator'
Now, in NotePad open the file:
c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
If you have Linux
Open the file /etc/hosts
You will probably need to use sudo to gain root privileges to edit the file
Open a terminal and run
sudo nano /etc/hosts
So now you've opened your hosts file, add the following line:
168.144.146.13 www.yourdomain.com yourdomain.com
Replace 168.144.146.13 with the IP address of your site, you can find this in the left-hand column of cPanel. Replace "yourdomain.com" with your actual domain name.
Once you have made the change, save the file.
Then you could access the website from the same system.
