Welcome to LinuxQuestions.

What distribution / version are you running?

Did you connect the USB device to the guest? A USB device can not be used by the host and guest at the same time?

Click on the Devices pull down menu at the top of the guest window, select USB and then the wireless adapter.

Using Vboxmanager you can add a filter so the device is always selected when the guest starts.
