If you want to connect wirelessly, hold the PS button and the Create button until the light bar starts flashing. Then go to Settings > Accessories > Bluetooth Accessories on your PS5 and select the controller from the list.

I've done this a million times. Use the USB cable first; it's the quickest way. If you want wireless after that, do the syncing dance with the PS and Create buttons.
