Issue with DisplayLink on Windows 11 – External Monitor Not Detected
I recently upgraded my laptop to Windows 11 and have been using a DisplayLink docking station to connect multiple monitors. Everything worked fine on Windows 10, but now one of my external monitors is not being detected at all.
Here’s what I’ve tried so far:
Reinstalled the latest DisplayLink driver from the official space waves website
Updated Windows 11 to the latest cumulative update
Checked all cables and connections (HDMI & USB-C)
Restarted the docking station and laptop multiple times
The monitor still shows “No Signal,” while other connected monitors via the same dock work fine.
Has anyone else experienced…

Slope Game – Master the Endless 3D Rolling Challenge
Slope Game is one of the most addictive endless running games on the web. Developed in a sleek 3D environment, this fast-paced browser game challenges players to roll a neon ball down a steep, twisting slope filled with sharp turns, sudden drops, and unpredictable obstacles. The goal is simple: survive as long as possible without falling off the edge. But with increasing speed and dynamic terrain, that’s easier said than done.
The appeal of Slope lies in its combination of simplicity and adrenaline. The controls are straightforward—just use the arrow keys to steer left and right—but the physics and increasing…

DL main display for Raspbian
Add drivers for ARM, and specifically for Raspbian. Make the drivers work over HDMI instead of (or in addition to) working over USB.
1 voteARM 32 bit binary is included in 4.4.

That’s not an actively supported platform though, due to the low level of requests. HDMI input in DisplayLink isn’t technically possible today. -

Feature Request: Option to Prioritize Performance Mode for Gaming & Animation
I’m new here and just started using a DisplayLink-powered docking station with my laptop (running Windows 11). First off — I’ve got to say, it’s been great being able to connect multiple monitors through USB-C without the usual cable chaos!
However, I’ve noticed that when I run certain 3D Geometry Dash applications or lightweight games (like indie rhythm or animation tools), the display sometimes lags slightly — not enough to break things, but just enough to feel off when timing or motion precision matters.
So I had an idea for a potential feature request:
👉 Add a “Performance Mode” toggle…1 vote -

Displaylink driver support for ubuntu 25.10
I recently updated my laptop to ubuntu 25.10 from 25.04. After the update, my DisplayLink dock doesn't connect my screen anymore. The keyboard and mouse connected to the dock work, but not the screen.
The drivers page shows official support only until Ubuntu 24.04, which is 1.5 years old now. It would be nice to have support for more recent versions.Operating System: Kubuntu 25.10

make your drivers work with MacOs, or dont sell them!
Why is it after purchsing two of your devices I still can't get my MBP to recognise there's a thunderbolt device attached (says only USB 3.1) and rather than show an extended screen, it blinks on and off (both screens) and chimes a particularly noxious chime? I didn't pay too much money for this device, which has never heard of PnP and cannot find a KEXT at all.

Ethernet Android OTG
I know the on board Nic doesn't work with Android. I will tell you however that if you use an OTG Android Nic and plug it into the USB port it works fine. I wonder if that will help with allowing the on board to work. Is it that it's not an OTG supported Nic. If so how could we change that?

Automatic Refresh Rate Optimization for Multi-Monitor Setups
I’d love to see a feature that allows DisplayLink to automatically detect and optimize refresh rates for each connected display. This would make multi-monitor setups smoother, reduce screen tearing, and improve overall performance — especially for users who switch between work and gaming environments.

Auto-Adjust Resolution When Docking
It would be great if DisplayLink could automatically detect and apply the preferred resolution and scaling settings for each connected monitor when docking or undocking a laptop. This would save time and ensure consistent display quality across setups.

MacBook Air M1
I have a HP G2 dock that I use with my work HPG7 laptop. I wanted to use my MacBook Air M1, purchased recently with this dock.
I downloaded the display link driver, as recommended by a few website and within a few minutes, I have extended desktop from my MacBook Air onto my 2x HP E243i monitors.
I can even close the MacBook Air and still use the monitors and USB peripherals.
It's the same experience as my HP G7 laptop1 vote -

Wacom display tablet on Android
Using a DisplayLink dock I have connected a Wacom One Display Tablet to a Google Pixel 3a mobile running Android 12. I have used both the DisplayLink Presenter and Desktop app. The display works however, the stylus input, while recognized, is not calibrated for both portrait and landscape. When using a mouse, the pointer is displayed on the mobile screen but, not the external display.

Enhancement Request: Improved rendering for "Overlay" windows in IDEs (Visual Studio/VAX)
Hi Team,
I’ve been using a DisplayLink-enabled dock for my development workstation for several months now. Overall, the stability is impressive. However, I’ve noticed a specific behavior when using Visual Studio alongside Visual Assist (Whole Tomato).
The Issue: When DisplayLink is driving multiple high-resolution displays, the "Quick Info" tooltips and "Member List" dropdowns (standard UI overlays in IDEs) occasionally exhibit a slight flicker or a 100ms delay in rendering compared to the main code editor window. This seems to be related to how the Desktop Window Manager (DWM) handles transparency on non-primary displays connected via USB.
