I suspect when you were using the ip address rather than localhost, the GWT Dev Plugin was unable to connect to the GWT code server. As a result it was not able to load (actually inject) the dynamic portions of your project (e.g. all of the GWT Java code). This is typically a result of some security restriction(s) set on your machine.
