Good walkthrough. One corretion:

From the README for compiling under arm, the following should work for compiling for mipsel as well:

ac_cv_linux_vers=2.4.16 ./configure --prefix=/tmp/kismet --host=mipsel blah blah

This fixes the pcap configure problem. You should put whatever kernel version the wrt54g uses in, but it's not too sensitive - pcap is generic for the whole 2.4 series, so if you're wrong it shouldn't affect the outcome.
