rekorbox link windows 8 issue. cdj 2000 nexus djm 900 nexus

Hello!

I am trying to use the link feature and it's not working. I've got everything hooked up correctly. I've had it working on windows Vista,  and windows 7 flawlessly. Now, the link button does show up. I press it, and it says to allow to establish on cdj. I go to cdj, and hit the rekordbox button. No permission message shows up. I am not a cpu genius, but I can usually get around. For this I am stuck. All the current drivers, and firmwares, and rekordbox is all up to date! Please help!!:(
