DisplayLink Ethernet Issue

Hi Everyone,

I was hoping someone could help me or has seen the issue I am about to explain.

- I have setup the DL with 3 monitors running Windows 10 Pro on my laptop.
- My router being used at the time was a TP-LINK TD-W8960N and I connected the laptop wired to one of the ports on the router to the ethernet port in the DL. This all worked fine!

- I changed my ISP to Sky Broadband and when I use the Sky Q Router ethernet port to the DL I get the following error:

"Ethernet 3" doesn't have a valid IP configuration.

If I take the ethernet out of the port at the back of the DL and plug it directly to the port on my laptop it works fine.

Is there something I have to do in my Sky Q router with the IP addressing?

Kind regards,

emissary
