Been using a WRT54GSv7 with DDWRT for years now, and one option that I could never get was Kaid because of the 4mb of flash.
I saw a good deal on the E1500 and decided to finally upgrade my router last month. Flashed it with rev 21061 big as per recommended on the router page.
Everywhere that I read states that Kaid is under the services tab..but I don't see it anywhere? The wiki page states the big build has Kaid so did Kaid get removed and nobody updated the pages or what??
I tried to flash a mega build but after the build uploaded it just said "upgrade failed" and sent me back to the homepage so I can't test to see if a mega build has it still..

Old Kaid is no longer accepted by game servers, new kaid is closed source - XLink does not release it.

So Kaid is gone from the dd-wrt firmware.

Sorry to bump an ancient thread but its the only one relevant.

kaid was discontinued by us (Team XLink) due to some serious security flaws and was blocked from accessing the service. We plan to bring back support for embedded systems like DDWRT soon Smile

Just reading the main site page reminds me of GameSpy3D (without which, most anything like it would have likely never happened, but that is my own biased opinion!):

https://www.teamxlink.co.uk/

The last commit on our end was 3 years ago:

https://github.com/mirror/dd-wrt/tree/master/src/router/kaid

I presume patches will be submitted to BrainSlayer?

We'll likely be replacing/rewriting kaid completely. I'll reach out to BrainSlayer when we're ready to test (Won't be for several months at minimum)
