Here are my findings related to this bug on Feisty, with a bcm4318 card
and network-manager:

1. Upgrading from Edgy to Feisty lead me to a regression with respect to
this bug, i.e. things were working right with Edgy, but not with Feisty
as far as ndiswrapper (or bcm43xx) + network-manager are concerned;

2. Using the bcm43xx-mac80211 module (not the bcm43xx regular one)
works, i.e. there's no connection problem; however, the signal level
monitoring is not working (i.e. itreports always 100%);

3.  The solution provided above works for me, i.e. issuing the "sudo
iwconfig ethX essid x mode managed" command.  To automate it at startup
and resume times, I put a script in the /etc/init.d and
/etc/acpi/resume.d
