I recently purchased the pluggable 3.0 usb docking station. Keyboard etc. work fine. However, HDMI and VGA links to monitors aren’t working. Monitor works through HDMI when I connect it direct to laptop but when connected through the docking station, it doesn’t pick up the monitor. can anyone help?

Hi Tom,
Thank you so much for reaching out to us, I am sorry that you are experiencing this issue, but I would be happy to assist!
Based on the description of the issue, and the fact that the connected USB devices are functioning, we are most likely dealing with an issue associated with your DisplayLink graphics drivers.
When you have a moment, please follow the instructions located in this KB article → My DisplayLink-based USB Docking Station or USB Video Adapter Is Not Working As Expected
Please let me know how this goes, and if it garnishes any immediate results!
Thank you for your time,
