M1 Macbook Pro
Acer CB342CK widescreen monitor with Display Port & HDMI
various older model dell LCD monitors with HDMI


I just want to be able to use 2 monitors PLUS the laptop while it's open. What dock do I need to be able to do this.

A quick note, I moved your post into the 'What to buy?' section of the forum given the nature of your question.


DisplayLink has a section of their website that allows you to filter through a list of DisplayLink-enabled products by requirements --> https://www.displaylink.com/products

The Acer display you mention has a maximum resolution of 3440x1440, so I would suggest setting the 'Min resolution' to 3840x2160 and the 'Min displays' to 2 in order to present a list of possible solutions.

Once you have the selection narrowed down, I would suggest contacting the manufacturer of the product in order to determine compatibility and suitability to purpose prior to making a purchase.
