You are getting duplicate ping packets, I would try to solve that first.

Try updating Virtualbox

fping does not handle duplicate packets right. I couldn’t replicate it, so I couldn’t fix it. Maybe if you could packet capture it, I could replay it?

After fixing the duplicate packet error by ssuing command “sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward=0” on the host machine. (not guest)

I am now able to add device properly.

Thank you for your help Chas and murrant.
