Hi there.

 

The dongle should not make any difference, but the software will.

 

You can download a Windows 8 compatible connection manager here, but at the moment it appears to be undergoing some work.

Also check any Pc Security Suite and or firewall, as it could be blocking the connection.

If possible try your dongle in an alternative Pc / Mac to ensure its not the actual dongle at fault.
