I followed this guide on my archer A7 v5:
https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/wan/smartphone.usb.tethering
eth1 shows up (I am using an iPhone XR). The phone shows that it is teathered after I get the trust computer message and agree to it. The issue is that I don't pull an IP address from the phone. I can techer to my mac from my phone wired and wirelessly.
