Still not working after 1 year, how do I get a replacement, it says 3 years warranty? UPDATE: 2.25.20 I am changing my original rating from 1 to 5 for customer service only. I had a remote session with tech support, the device broke and was replaced. I use this on both my MAC laptop and my X1 laptop. I will buy another product from this company.

Just about perfect

I got this to be able to switch from connecting/disconnecting 3 monitors to just connecting one monitor when taking my laptop to work. So he's doing a great job. It even solved my problem where Windows just disappeared into thin air after locking Windows 10 and logging back in, so the graphics card drivers are exceptional. However, I am currently having an issue where one of the monitors is not working. wake up when it starts receiving a signal, so I have to turn it off and on again every time…

  • EASY TO USE: This triple or dual monitor adapter uses MST technology to natively support your HDMI monitors, allowing for a driverless plug-and-play setup; Fully compatible with Windows systems

Image quality is good, but this largely depends on the graphics capabilities of the laptop. it is very portable. While it's plastic, it feels good enough and well built. Unfortunately, the extension cord has numerous quirks that make it a bit frustrating to use. The power strip behaves erratically when the…

This device isn't working properly

This causes USB C (dp) connection problems with Dell Inspiron 13-7378. I have three 27" Samsung monitors. One connects to the HDMI port on the Dell. The other two connect to this splitter via HDMI. The computer works with 4 monitors, but I had to set each external monitor to 59Hz before two worked on this unit.The 59hz solution I found by accident and not on the advice of Startech.Previously the monitors were connected to these units, worked for about an hour then started turning off (turning…
