The early Netcomm NB1400 modems ran linux.  Netcomm have been quite
happy to answer questions I've asked in the past.  Try asking them
directly:

support at netcomm.com.au

I had a half hearted look for the NB3 on their website but couldn't find
a mention, are you sure you have the right model number?
