dd-wrt worth it??

[BJH088]

I have a Linksys WRT54G v8 router and the only dd-wrt firmware I can put on their is the v24 Beta since it is a v8. Is the beta version even worth it??

What do you want it to do?

It is worth it if you need a feature it adds...

mainly for downloading speed improvements. Right now I am only maxing out at around 500 KB/s which is B.S. because I was maxing out at 1.7 MB/s before I got the Linksys WRT54WG. Would this help or what.

Maybe.

DD-WRT is a real nice system although I don't have experience with the linksys routers past v5 or the gl version.
