Reverse Engineering a NETGEAR MD200 PCB – feasibility and recommended workflow?

calendar_today October 14, 2026 person @klaus.ruckerbauer Klaus Ruckerbauer domain quilter

I have the original hardware and four high-resolution photographs showing both sides of both boards. However, I don’t have the original schematics, Gerber files, BOM, or firmware.
