nano /etc/apt/sources.list
2. You should add the following two lines and save:

Once downloaded, these 3 packages should be installed by dpkg:
To install a 32-bit:
dpkg -i nxclient_3.5.0-7_i386.deb
dpkg -i nxnode_3.5.0-9_i386.deb
dpkg -i nxserver_3.5.0-11_i386.deb
For the 64-bit:
dpkg -i nxclient_3.5.0-7_amd64.deb
dpkg -i nxnode_3.5.0-9_amd64.deb
dpkg -i nxserver_3.5.0-11_amd64.deb
