This is the key. I can't remember where I read it but this is a documented caveat of the ndis driver. Windows doesn't typically invoke network drivers until after the system is loaded, so some drivers won't work in FreeBSD unless they're loaded after the system is up. So take the line out of /boot/loader.conf, test that the driver works correctly if you reboot and kldload it manually, then make an rc script or something to automatically load the driver later in the boot process.
