Can I block gambling sites using the router

Dustykitten · 2012-09-18 19:41:01

Title says it all. I'd like to be able to block all gambling sites from being used on pc/laptops in our house. Is there an easy way to do this using the router? Router is virgin supplied netgear. Thanks techies

Mr DCM is, of course, correct in his musings above, but for the useage as described the opendns solution within the router probably would have been the easiest/most effective solution. As has been noted, there is no 100% foolproof solution to the problem, it's probably the best that can be done under those circumstances........

p.s. if anyone does come up with a 100% solution, please share
