kindly post the following

1. Name of device and company that manufactures it
2. Run "dmesg" (from a terminal) after connecting the device , find
out what messages appear, if you connect the device after Ubuntu is up
and running these messages will appear right at the end
3. run "lsusb -v" also from the terminal - again browse through the
results and find the device mention and post the results (you can trim
it to just the name of the device, product id and vendor id)

last how exactly did you attempt to configure. I have seen this device
(and got its manual) a search of the net did not through up successful
results on ubunu, as yet

so lets see whether we can crack this
