under Network Device Support --> Wireless LAN

Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 Network Connection
Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG and 2915ABG Network Connection

must be something wrong with the kernel.. no Intel 3945 option

You may have to enable some ieee802.11 functions first, but it there;

Code:

That was taken from my 2.6.24.3 kernel .config file by mistake, sorry. This is the one from the new 2.6.25-rc5 kernel release candidate;

Code:

#
# Wireless LAN
#
# CONFIG_WLAN_PRE80211 is not set
CONFIG_WLAN_80211=y
# CONFIG_PCMCIA_RAYCS is not set
# CONFIG_IPW2100 is not set
# CONFIG_IPW2200 is not set
# CONFIG_LIBERTAS is not set
# CONFIG_AIRO is not set
CONFIG_HERMES=m
# CONFIG_PLX_HERMES is not set
# CONFIG_TMD_HERMES is not set
# CONFIG_NORTEL_HERMES is not set
# CONFIG_PCI_HERMES is not set
CONFIG_PCMCIA_HERMES=m
# CONFIG_PCMCIA_SPECTRUM is not set
# CONFIG_ATMEL is not set
# CONFIG_AIRO_CS is not set
# CONFIG_PCMCIA_WL3501 is not set
CONFIG_PRISM54=m
# CONFIG_USB_ZD1201 is not set
# CONFIG_USB_NET_RNDIS_WLAN is not set
# CONFIG_RTL8180 is not set
# CONFIG_RTL8187 is not set
# CONFIG_ADM8211 is not set
# CONFIG_P54_COMMON is not set
# CONFIG_ATH5K is not set

# CONFIG_IWL4965_QOS is not set
# CONFIG_IWL4965_SPECTRUM_MEASUREMENT is not set
# CONFIG_IWL4965_SENSITIVITY is not set
# CONFIG_IWL4965_DEBUG is not set
CONFIG_IWL3945=m
# CONFIG_IWL3945_QOS is not set

# CONFIG_IWL3945_DEBUG is not set
CONFIG_HOSTAP=m
# CONFIG_HOSTAP_FIRMWARE is not set
# CONFIG_HOSTAP_PLX is not set
# CONFIG_HOSTAP_PCI is not set
CONFIG_HOSTAP_CS=m
# CONFIG_BCM43XX is not set
# CONFIG_B43 is not set
# CONFIG_B43LEGACY is not set
# CONFIG_ZD1211RW is not set
# CONFIG_RT2X00 is not set

You do have the Networking-->Wireless 80211 configured hopefully;

Code:

#
# Wireless
#
CONFIG_CFG80211=m
CONFIG_NL80211=y
CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT=y
CONFIG_MAC80211=m
