1 year ago We're using the disambiguation from Network Manager here now, so I can confirm that it'll show as either "USB Ethernet" or "Apple Ethernet". If it would better for it to always show "iPad Ethernet" or something like that, that should be pursued upstream in Network Manager: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/issues
Closing as "Out of scope" since device names come from Network Manager
Problem
The name of the model of my device is incorrect. It should be 'Apple iPad (6th generation)'. Moreover, if two devices of the same model is connected via USB and both are available for USB ethernet tethering, it would be impossible to tell which one is which.
Proposal
Display the devices' name instead of its model name, like in Files:
