The loss of connection and the low data rate may both be due to interference. The bcm43xx driver would be more susceptible than would ndiswrapper (see below). Have you tried changing channels? The obvious choices would be 1, 6, or 11 depending on other AP's in your vicinity. In my case, no other user was on channel 1, but I couldn't make a connection. Channel 2 was better, 3 even better and I now use 4. My fastest transfer speeds are at 36M. > The signal is obviously good enough to support rates up to 54M.

It is the transmitted signal that is a problem with all cards, but we are working on it.
