I had reproduced that bug in three different machines:
Ubuntu 8.10 with Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 restricted drivers and a wireless PCI 
card with RTL8180 driver and ndiswrapper.
Debian Unstable with the same nvidia card, the same wireless card and kernel 
2.6.26 with Nvidia proprietary drivers and RTL8180 and ndiswrapper.
Windows XP SP3 with the same wireless card and the same nvidia card.

When I remove the nvidia card the wi-fi works allright.

When I use ndiswrapper I can see this message on dmesg:
ndiswrapper: wlan0 is being reset.

I found in google that it can be an IRQ related problem. Thus I think is
not Ubuntu specific.
