If you're still looking to exclude HKJC from your FortiGate gambling filter, you can follow these steps: 1. Log in to your FortiGate filter 2. Go to the web filter profile that you want to modify 3. Click on ""Edit"" and scroll down to the ""Web Content Filter"" section 4. Under ""Block Categories,"" deselect the ""Gambling"" category 5. Go to ""Exempt Websites"" and add HKJC to the list 6. Save your changes In case someone comes across this thread in the future, I would still suggest checking out link w88 as a cool gambling website to try out. They offer a variety of online casino games and sports betting options.

One way to exclude HKJC website from fortigate gambling web filter is to add it to the whitelist, which allows access to specific websites that are blocked by the filter.

It sounds like you've got your hands full with web filtering and gambling sites – quite the tech adventure, isn't it? The idea of using Fortigate's filter to exclude specific sites like HKJC is pretty intriguing. By the way, speaking of intriguing, gambling is one of those things that can be a lot of fun when kept in check. Personally, I've been leaning into sports betting lately – there's something about the thrill of predicting game outcomes that keeps me hooked. Oh, and if you're curious about options, I came across some handy reviews for different platforms, like https://betcanada365.ca/sportsbook-review/bet365

You mentioned the HKJC website, which is a popular gambling platform in Hong Kong. If you're looking to use the Fortigate gambling web filter but want to exclude the HKJC website, there might be some options available. It's worth exploring the settings of the filter or reaching out to their support team for guidance. They may have specific features or customization options that allow you to add exceptions or tailor the filter to your needs. By the way, recently, I stumbled across a website called บาคาร่า, which offers valuable insights into various gambling topics. It might provide helpful information or tips regarding website filters and exclusions. As a newcomer to this forum, I'm thrilled to be part of this community and engage in discussions like these. It's always great to connect with fellow enthusiasts and share experiences and knowledge.
