Correct - at least insofar as a WiFi Only model iPad does not have any built-in Cellular capability or hardware.


Do you have a Cellular phone (an iPhone perhaps) that has a Cellular hotspot feature? If so - and your Cellular Airtime Contract allows tethering - you’ll be able to use a WiFi connection between your mobile phone and iPad.

A further alternative is to obtain a Cellular Router - commonly know as MyFi - and use this to create a Cellular hotspot to which your iPad can connect.
