Hi Guys, apologies for jump in but I have exactly the same problem with the same laptop, however my dock station it is supposed to be Display Link compatible. I check in the linked provided and I did not found my hardware so there is other way to check ?? here is the link of hardware Im using.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BJ28RQ2N...sin_title&th=1

I tried all the possible cable combination however nothing work, but if I plug directly into the laptop I can get one of two the extended screens to work...... please I will appreciate any help.

Hi RudyS

Your product indeed is DisplayLink compatible, in fact it uses a combination of technologies:

Display 1 (HDMI) - so called "Alt mode" - it only works if the dock is connected via USB-C
Display 2 (DP) - DisplayLink output
Display 3 (DP/HDMI) - DisplayLink output

Therefore, in the current version of DisplayLink Manager, only displays connected to Display 2 & 3 will appear in the app. Please make sure to install the latest version of the app:

According to the information provided by the manufacturer --> https://www.wavlink.com/en_us/product/WL-UG7602HC.html and the product photos in the Amazon listing the product is based on SiliconMotion USB video technology.

You will need to install a SiliconMotion USB driver in order for that adapter to work, and the driver can be downloaded from the aforementioned web link.


I know this is super cheeky. But if you have a spare 10 mins can you look at the UK amazon site and let me know of any that will work. I am absolutelly useless at stuff like this. Something the would be DisplayLinnk ready and don't have to go getting drivers etc.

Please and thank you in advance...

As I mentioned previously, DisplayLink has a list of products that use DisplayLink technology here --> https://www.synaptics.com/products/d...ylink-products

The trouble is that a lot off these products are sold I the US and im in the UK and it prevents purchase.

If I send a few UK amazon products can you or someone else check them and just say yes or no to them? I know im being a pain in the neck, but I don't want to buy something that isn't compatible:

Prodict 1:
Product 1

Product 2
Product 2

Product 3
Product 3

Product 4
Product 4

This product uses a mix of DisplayLink and Alt-Mode technology. Port "Display 1" is Alt-Mode, while "Display 2" and "Display 3" are DisplayLink ports.
