So yes as title mentions I need some clarification on what grade would the boards coming from modem/routers be. I have roughly 40 pounds of these type that all look the same and have same components on all of them . Gold plated pins where a Ethernet cable would plug in , gold corner chips, as well as gold plated oscillators on all of them . I’ve heard many different things on what grade they would be , but I would like some definitive answers to this . Thanks

There are general rules that you can follow on common boards but even with a general rule you'll come across things that don't fit.

These will most likely be high peripheral. I see there are some boards attached to at least a couple boards, they may or may not have more value on their own. Remember to remove wires and metal shields. I see on one board you removed what I call the metal fence that is soldered to the board and would have a lid on it. Normally you can leave that but sometimes to make the higher grade it should be removed.

Feel free to lay the boards out for a pic so we can see them clearly and let you know if we see something that doesn't fit high peripheral.

Here’s some close up pictures as you requested to be more specific in the way of modem/router boards.if there’s any thing special about these boards pictured let me know so I have a better idea of what to pull from this big bin of modem/routers I have . And if you could please explain why it would fall into a different class if at all . Thank you!
