this is a warning. not an error. i think it is not relevant to your problem.

you might want to try kldload -v if_ndis and watch the end of 
/var/log/messages. iirc the "file exists" error is thrown on a variety 
of problems, not only if the module is already loaded and the hint to 
the real cause is in /var/log/messages.

this seems consistens with what you describe above since the device is 
created when if_ndis is loaded, not when ndis.

regarding the rest of your problems: i don't have clue, either.
