I do not have a carrier on my iPad. In settings the Carrier is iPad 41.0, and the number is unknown. Why would I be asked constantly to update carrier settings, and which carrier’s settings am I updating too?
iPad Pro 12.9-inch, 3rd Gen, Wi-Fi, Cell
You have a cellular model of iPad. From Apple, it is possible to activate a Cellular plan directly from selected carriers; the iPad 41.0 carrier settings file relates to this. Until activated, you’ll not have a number - and it will default to all-zeros.

Thank you for that info. Is there any way to confirm that theres no data plan currently installed on e-sim or possibly installed intermittently? I would like to verify that data hasn’t been, or can be activated w/ malicious intent?
If you tap Settings > Mobile Data, you’ll either be presented with a list of partnered Cellular providers from to choose a plan to activate (i.e., no physical SIM is installed, or no AppleSIM/eSIM plan is currently enabled) - or you’ll see the full Mobile Data settings page (either a physical SIM is installed, or an AppleSIM/eSIM plan is active).
If a physical SIM is installed, the Carrier Settings field (Settings > General > About) will indicate the associated Cellular Carrier ID and version number - otherwise you’ll see iPad and version number.
Nothing can be enabled remotely.
Thank you very much! Sorry for the tardy reply, I really appreciate your taking the time to assist!
Carrier update settings but I do not have a carrier?
