What is the response to "ndiswrapper -l"?
It should be something like
[root at eagle ~]# ndiswrapper -l
Installed ndis drivers:
bcmwl5 driver present, hardware present
That tells you it sees the hardware and the driver is loaded.

I think you may need to assign the essid and maybe check to see what
channel to use on the AP.
Otherwise that seems OK to me.
Also, if you are using WEP you will need to make an entry for the key
in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/keys-wlan0 of the form
KEY=<my key here>
