I am trying to use my raspberry through SSH, in order to connect to it I wanted to set a static IP address for it. While being connected to my home network, it works fine, the IP is probably set by my router So i can access it easily. But when offline it just won't connect. I have installed RaspAP and this service also doesn't work properly without a network access so wlan0 interface is not usable.
I have tried to configure my dhcpcd.conf
file in order to configure a static IP address for eth0. I am very new in terms of network connections and such, and as RaspAP uses dhcpcd, I was told not to configure /etc/network/interfaces
Do you have any tips or something I should look into?
EDIT2:
When I plug in my ethernet cable from PC to raspberry I can access it with SSH for a brief 5 second then the connection is shut down.
This is what ip a
shows:

When I say offline, I mean my computer AND my raspberry are both not connected to the internet/home network/router. The only physical connection I want is an ethernet cable connecting both devices.
Update:
When the RPI and the PC are connected together with an ethernet cable, Wireshark throws these messages from the raspberry:
Who has 192.168.1.1? Tell 192.168.1.126
Why is the raspberry trying to find the router? there isn't one...
ip a; ip r
show?
