2 Monitors attached to MacBook Air M2

I've connected 2 monitors to my MacBook Air M2 via a port. Both monitors work, however the image in the same on both. In the display settings, only 1 monitor is detected. How do I detect both monitors so that I can extend the across all screens. Thanks

MacBook Air, macOS 13.0

A DisplayLink adaptor is not a dock. It essentially creates a virtual displays which will allow for two external monitors. In fact on my M2 MacBook Air, I have run 3 external monitors, two from the DisplayLink adaptor, and the third from a USB C hub. The adaptor I have is a Plugable USBC-6950U, available on Amazon
