Do you have 'ifconfig_ndis=your settings here' in rc.conf?  Are you 
sure by pressing that button you haven't turned the wireless card off? 
(In my experience with ndis0 and hotkeys, it doesn't work well.)


You're not giving is much to work with here.
When i was using the ndis interface on my dv2000 with broadcom4311 the 
wifi light never came on and the switch had no function. you could be 
experiencing the same situation. my wifi did however, work.

normally i issued all the config options with ifconfig at one time, ie 
the ssid so on. ifconfig ndis0 up ssid ssid. something like that. i 
put the card back in and do it again to make sure. right now i'm using 
an intel card.
