Internet connect management/USB dongles

Using VMware workstation Pro 16

Guests are running Windows 10 64bit as is the host

I would like help with two things please.

1. How do I ensure that guests do not use the host network adapter?

2. Guests will connect to the internet using a USB dongle, each guest must only use a specified dongle these are connected using a USB hub, I am currently finding it difficult to know which USB dongle I am connecting to each guest as the dialog box that should appear asking me what do to is not appearing.

 

Any suggestions, particularly on how to get the USB connection dialog box to appear again would be really appreciated

Not sure about the second question, but as to the first (ensure the guests do not use the host's network connection) - simply do not add a virtual network adapter in the VM settings.
