3g modem issue (MF668)

[Tom Sparks]

We have just got a 3g modem (Telstra prepaid) for our friend's birthday
I think it is a Elite MF668 modem

the modem connect to the network including getting an IP address
the modem sends packets to the network, but dose not get any back

firefox/IE can't connect to google.com.au

the computer also got on his birthday is running Vista business (the best option of the two evils)

* I am think they are living in a black spot, they use moblie phones so that seams unlikely
* outdate drivers

what else would explain these symptoms?
