OK after re-installing the CLI OS, its working now, if anyone has issues:

connect the wifi dongle

> sudo nano /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

network={
        ssid="your_ssid_here"
        psk="your_psk_here"
}

CTRL X, Y and Enter to save

> sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces

# interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)
# Include files from /etc/network/interfaces.d:
source-directory /etc/network/interfaces.d

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
        wpa-ssid your_ssid_here
        wpa-psk your_psk_here

CTRL X, Y and Enter to save

> sudo reboot


if you want to protect the wifi password you put it in wpa_supplicant, and then call that file from interfaces by doing this:
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
        wpa-ssid your_ssid_here
        wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
