Troubleshooting • Pi5: Ethernet/Power over USB-C

First post here. By the way, you CANNOT create an account here using a mobile device. VERY frustrating...

I have power working from my iPad Pro to my pi5, but I cannot seem to coerce my pi5 to provide an IP address to my iPad Pro like I was able to do with my p4.

This video guide had a setup that works perfectly on the pi4. I've yet to find any equivalent way to get DHCP/Ethernet to work over USB-C with pi5.

There are conversations happening elsewhere, but none (to my knowledge) have found a working solution. Here are some relevant discussions:

https://github.com/raspberrypi/bookworm ... /issues/77

https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/issues/5737

Some of the conversations have been HERE, but they haven't found any solutions for this issue either:

Any help would be MUCH appreciated!!!

P.P.S These forums seem to be wholly unable to allow creation of new accounts from mobile devices. I tried with Safari, Edge, Chrome, and Opera from iPhone 15 and iPad Pro. I tried multiple times in multiple ways from multiple networks on both devices. It wasn't until I tried to create an account using my Mac itself that I succeeded. I mention this because it was incredibly annoying and surely I'm not the only person impacted...
