Re: Canon R5 - major tethering problems - need urgent help

I might have missed it in your fairly long post, but I don't see a mention of which tether tools cable setup you are using. If I remember correctly, someone mentioned the special USB-A to C cable or the boost adapter to deal with power stability requirements. I think the idea is that both of these cut off the USB-PD protocol, so it might be possible to achieve this if the laptop can drive a USB-C port without PD, but I guess that is rare
