I downloaded version 1.54 of ndiswrapper, did make uninstall for the
previous version, make, make install and modprobe for the new. Starts
fine and lets me in to the net.

Seems like if I browse occasionally the connection stays up quite well,
but the moment I start Rhythmbox to stream audio from internet the
connection fails within seconds.

Are you able to stream audio from e.g. http://www.morow.com ?

I concur ;-) NetworkManager seems to be a NetworkDamager when it comes
to wireless. Just installed Ubuntu onto my father in laws laptop, and
only way to make wireless work was to remove Network Manager. I do not
use it in any of my machines.
