The graph of \(y = \frac{ax^2 + bx + c}{x + d}\) has a vertical asymptote with equation \(x = -1\) and an oblique asymptote with equation \(y = 2x + 2\). It is given that \(c \neq 2\).

Write down the value of \(d\) and show that \(a = 2\) and \(b = 4\).

Hence find the range of values of \(c\) if the graph has no stationary points.
