Welcome to the Community,

if I understand you correctly, you are trying to connect the dongle to the VM in order to use it from within the guest OS!? A device can only be connected to either the host, or one of the VMs but not to multiple systems at the same time. If you want to have Internet access from both VMs at the same time, consider to connect to the Internet from the host, and configure the VM's for e.g. NAT networking to share the host's network access.
