I need help - I have no WiFi access so need my iPad’s SIM to connect to data. I have a connected account with an iPhone but obviously two different SIMs. How do I fix this issue?

@Wayne1 just turn on your hotspot on the phone and search for the wifi hotspot on your ipad.

That’s one option but I have SIM in the iPad that seems not to be working - I may a monthly fee to have data. Is this one for O2 tomorrow?

Try resetting your network connection but if not, give customer services a call at 8.00 in the morning.

I had exactly the same issue last year.

 

pop into your local store and ask them for a new sim card. Sorted in seconds and no problems since.

 

In short you need a new sim card
