I bought a Wavlink dock a couple of years ago to use with my early 2015 MBPr. I don't remember why, but I was unable to get the external monitor working through the dock when I initially set it up. This past weekend I was rewiring things and stumbled on a note on DP 1.2 being enabled, so I decided to hook it back up again that way after changing the setting.
Good new is it worked! Now I only have one cable into the laptop.
Bad news is the colors seem dull and every now and then it decides flash on and off. Response time is also a bit slow. I've gone through the menu settings and toggle what seems to be relevant but it hasn't changed.
I am using a Startech DP to Mini DP cable, 6', Mini DP is plugged into the monitor.
The monitor is a Dell U2415 monitor with DP, Mini DP and HDMI ports. I was initially using DP on the monitor.
Should I try a different type of cable? The dock has HDMI and DP.
Thanks!
