'14e4,4320' is not valid device ID.
Try ndiswrapper -d 14e4:4320 bcmwl5 and see what happens. IIRC, that's what I had to change.

Now ndiswrapper -d 14e4:4320 bcmwl5 ln: creating symbolic link /etc/ndiswrapper/bcmwl5/14e4:4320.5.conf to 14e4:4320.5.conf: file exists
So guess I did not need that, but thought I would try it. One step further.
now modprobe ndiswrapper results in
FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found.
Seems there is a /usr/sbin/ndiswrapper executeable and there should be an ndiswrapper.ko in /lib/modules/2.6.16.13-4-default/misc, but there is no /misc directory and I have been unable to find it with find in any directory. I installed the rpm with rpm -ivh and ran SuSEconfig as it would not install with yast, so, where does suse but the .ko file? Or where can I find this file?

I ended up downloading the tar.gz file from sourceforge and installing i after uninstalling the rpm. Wireless networking is now working.
