Q: Do I have to enable cellular data plan.

My first iPad I bought with cellular capability to preserve resale value.  I just bought an I- pad 4.  It has cellular capability but I do not wish to use it.  Again resale value.  I have been unable to get my iPad working with my wifi.  It has an ip from my wireless router but keeps telling me I need to activate cellular.  Is this required?

    No, you do not need to activate a cellular account.  But it sounds like your sales source did some setting up for you.

     

    Go to Settings > Cellular Data > View Account

     

    You should be able to do what you need to do there to deactivate any account that might exist on your behalf.
