At least as of 17 July 2008, once your system is updated, enabling the "wl" driver in restricted drivers will run the wireless card, making ndiswrapper unnecessary.

You'd better download the file listed below in the instructions before you lose your network connection. These are shortened instructions from: [community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff].
