Unable to send or receive text messages from some contacts on new iPad

I got a new iPad and setup it from my old one. I’m now unable to send or receive text from some contacts. What setting do I need to change on my new iPad….I didn’t have this issue with my old iPad and nothing on my phone has changed.

iPad Air, iPadOS 15
