I would try in terminal

Code: Select all

eject /dev/sr1

That might allow you to access the modem
Please run

Code: Select all

lsusb

before doing that as we might be able to use usb-modeswitch to automate this

From what I see in the picture in your original post, click the eject icon under Devices: 32 GB
See if the modem can be used
