I thought I would add some more info...
I downloaded the following
ftp://ftp.linux-wlan.org/pub/linux-wan-ng/
the file was linux-wan-ng-0.1.16-pre9.tar.gz
I expanded the files.
I run make config
answer questions accordingly
prism2.x pcmcia driver NO
Prism2 PLX9052 Based PCI driver. NO
Prism2.5 Native PCI Driver YES
Prism2.5 USB Driver NO
Source Directory (changed to /usr/src/linux-2.4)
(NOTE: I copied the i686 file from the Sources folder to the linux-2.4 directory and renamed that file to .config like it asked)
Alternate Target Install Root Directory on Host (not sure what that is but I selected "/sbin/wland" and created that directory.
Module install directory /lib/modules/2.4.18-14 (this give a text message stating that it looks like you have a system V init file setup.)
Prefix for build host compiler NO
Build for Debugging NO
Configuration Successful.
Next I run make all
The first time I ran this it displayed quite a bit of information. Now however when I run it at the bottom I am getting make errors.
a copy of the info currently seen is this.
[root@LCARS linux-wlan-ng-0.1.16-pre9]# make config

I guess I will stop at this point , but before I starting messing with all my config files and such I never got these errors. The main thing I can think that I did was run Make Config in the kernel directory which resulted in about 200 questions being asked. Most of which I just pressed enter.
Thanks,
Jamie
