My monitors are both Dell 24"

My setup uses both DisplayPort ports from the dock, and the monitors receive the DisplayPort ports, as well. No cable conversions in between, just straight DisplayPort.

Again, I have to power on my laptop and sign in, and THEN I connect to the D6000.

Make sure the DisplayLink software is running... not sure what else might be happening.

Thanks

Thanks for the follow up! Still doesn’t work even starting it up it same way as you are. At this point I am ready to go back to the Intel 2020 MB pro. Just on principle having to spend extra money for hub and fancy cables for basic functionality is pissing me off.

And in case anyone is wondering: was able to daisy chain the LG monitors (4K Ultrafine) and power to the Intel Laptop with absolutely no problem smh. Hopefully M2 will solve this problem

Like many waiting to see if the next M1 machine supports multi-monitors natively to overcome this mess. Certainly is a downside to M1.
