Harry,

I'm not sure exactly which NextG device you are referring to but as a
team we have set up a wiki that may be of assistance to you. If you
have a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AustralianTeam/Projects/WirelessBroadbandInformation
you will see a list of wireless broadband devices that are available
in Australia on different networks and if there were any special
requirements to get them working within Ubuntu. While it may not
exactly solve your issue it might at least start to point you in the
right direction. If it doesn't solve your issue but helps please feel
free to update the wiki page with the information you found useful so
that others may benefit as well.

Regards,

Jared Norris
