Does the device have a virtual serial port corresponding to the USB port? I
don't know what port number it might be given, as it would likely be
different on every device, but you might find it by looking in the registry
at HKLM\Drivers\Active. Each entry represents one device and you'd be
looking for devices that have names like COM<n>:. You wouldn't know what to
send to use the low-level driver calls, unless you know exactly how the
dongle device works.
