mh, there is no kwb* (or kw?b*) neither in the netgear sources nor in 
stock uboot-1.14

I've got both, source and image.
The first thing I did was reading the ROM to disk :)
1,5M 2013-02-10 20:18 mtd0.uboot.img
128K 2013-02-10 20:18 mtd1.uboot-env.img
6,0M 2013-02-10 20:19 mtd2.kernel.img
2,2M 2013-02-10 20:19 mtd3.initrd.img
  89M 2013-02-10 20:17 mtd4.jffs2.img

There is a UART_boot_file.zip included in the source:
32000  2008-06-05 19:35   bb11223344556677_boot.bin

There are a lot of changes in the netgear uboot source.
I don't know where to start.
I cannot find your mail where you wrote about searching for something... o.O

Well, I think easiest would be to try loading the image through serial.
Should I start with this?
