ndiswrapper -m creates an alias i.e. the module is being loaded when wlan0 is used. That means that you have to use wlan0. If you haven't configured your wlan card to connect at boot (i.e. auto wlan0 in /etc/network/interfaces) it won't load at boot, but when doing a sudo ifup wlan0
I'm not sure how (and if) this works, when using network-manager.

In order to make ndiswrapper load at boot (or also insertion of the
device for usb-devices) sudo ndiswrapper -ma should be added. This will
make ndiswrapper load if the cards supported by the installed windows-
drivers are present (using usb- and pci-ids).

Please make sure you have configured your card this way. Also attach
your /etc/network/interfaces .
