Unable to pxe boot from a USB Ethernet Dongle on a Dell XPS 13

Hi

I was recently asked to setup a Windows 7 image in SCCM for the new Dell XPS 13 Ultrabook laptops.

These don't come with a built in NIC so we had to buy a ethernet dongle to connect to the network. I am trying to boot to this USB device via PXE but I dont see the option to boot from the USB device (its not listed). In the bios I did change the boot order to have USB on the top of the list.

It doesnt even see it plugged in, the light on the dongle is not lit up. 

I was able to create a boot disk (WinPE created by SCCM 2007) on a USB stick. This is the only way I have been able to successfully connect to the sccm infrastructure and image my machine successfully.

On the laptop, the right port is USB 3.0 and I had to add some extra drivers to my boot image. 

I really need the ablility to PXE boot this laptop since this is our current process for imaging.

Does anyone have any advice? Thanks
