Thank you so much for PI5 OTG USB-C guide!

I've got my PI5 16GB 3 days ago and was trying to make it mobile over OTG USB-C as many suggested (@TechCraft and others).
I have bumped into the NetworkManager issue. I've got usb0 ethernet network up with nmcli, but than dhcp blocked me. I could not make it work with static IPs. iPad would not see PI5 and vice versa.

Thanks to your guide, I think this will definitely help!

One more thing, just a few more issues:

1. I checked Ubuntu, and it is slow. I have 30W adapters, but not an official one. So, people say, PSU_MAX_CURRENT=5000 will help. To be checked
2. Mobile hotspot connection to my phone does not work. PI5 is blocked on password verification. I'm using a heatsink case; maybe this is the issue. One weird thing is that if I use an SD card that I created several months ago for my PI3B, P5 connects to the hotspot. Also, the connection to the regular WIFI network works very well. Very weird.

Everyone is looking for a solution to share the iPad's wifi connection with PI5, but I think it is a dream.

Cheers, and thanks again.

I have to second the remarks by @agilebotanist : many, many thanks!
I've used the steps on a RPi Zero 2W running bookworm "Lite", and can now connect to the wired network on the Pi from a linux machine, using USB A <--> microUSB.

Huge +1. This saved me a ton of time. Thank you so much for putting this together!!!

And likewise from me. Up and running quickly on a Pi5 with SSD (from iPad 11 Pro M4), and using VNC to connect to a Desktop. had to implement the PSU_MAX_CURRENT=3000 to get it to work. Now I have a travelling Pi.
