A bit of help needed if possible...
I've finally got my 3G modem working, one of those mobile broadband things that plugs into the USB port. I'm using a MacBook and this is now giving me internet access, no problems.
The problem is I have an Airport Express thingy too and use this to play my iTunes music though an amp. As soon as I turn on the Airport on my Macbook the AirTunes works fine but the internet stops working. Basically the Airport appears to override the 3g Modem, thinking I want to use this to access the internet and use AirTunes.
As you can probably guess from the above I'm not too technically savvy so if you can help can you keep it pretty simple, thanks!
Basically I want to use the 3g Modem for the internet and, at the same time, use Airport to connect to my Airport Express for AirTunes.
Any ideas?

Above command must be return the all devices the SCSI-CDROM’s that mounted on your machine. You may get the below result in your terminal

We need to unplug and execute the same command and see which device is disappeared from previous list. Then re plug and execute the command, now you can see that device back. Your current device maybe linked with /dev/sr1 or /dev/sr2 or anything else.
