Advantages to 2.4: 

more drivers/support for hw
better USB/Firewire support
Netfilter changes(I think the 2.4 netfilter is MUCH better than the 2.2 one, 
and yes, there is a compatibility module so all your old scripts should work)
Better stability(been pounded on more, logically should be more stable.)  

I would recommend 2.4.20 or 2.4.19 myself.
