With VirtualBox completely shut down and the dongle connected to your PC, go to Control Panel, Network Connections. Check that the Huawei dongle is present, and if so, highlight it and select Properties, look at the list of services attached to this network card and make sure "VirtualBox Bridged Networking Driver" is enabled.

If your dongle is not listed in network connections then it isn't considered to be a true network connection and you will not be able to bridge to it.

I have a different Huewei dongle, but it's at work and I'm at home on a Sunday. I'll try to remember to confirm tomorrow that bridging works.

Well, that's precisely the point. The feature allows you to bridge to network cards (NICs), not modems. Whether your particular device appears as a NIC while connected is device dependant, you would have to ask Huawei about that.

You have not said what your goal is. If it's merely to connect the VM to the internet for browsing then NAT mode should work. If you need bridging to enable more complex internet traffic then an alternative might be to connect the device directly to the guest (is it USB?) in which case my tutorial (linked above by Noteirak) might help.
