NB: I don't have this kind of card, or actually any wireless network card at
all.
That said, however, you're looking in the wrong place in the kernel config.
What you selected is Wide Area Network support. That's not what you want.
Assuming a 2.6 kernel, this is what I believe you want:
-> Device Drivers
-> Networking support
-> Network device support (NETDEVICES [=y])
-> Wireless LAN (non-hamradio)
[*] Wireless LAN drivers (non-hamradio) & Wireless Extensions
