I have a WRT54GL v1.1 on it's way in the mail to me that I plan on flashing to v24 Beta to use as a repeater. The only question I have is will the LAN ports be active in this configuration? Will then have internet access?

repeater is only wifi

if you want wifi + LAN then you want WDS
but that requires both are dd-wrt (normally same / similar hardware)

Actually, you can connect a computer to the LAN port. It will repeat to the host AP on the other end the same as the wifi...I've done it many times.

Just to confirm the LAN ports do indeed work when in universal repeater mode.
