If your iPad is a Cellular model then you can buy a sim card from your carrier and place it in the iPad's sim tray and have it connect othe cellular network t get internet access.


If your iPad is a Wifi only model it can;t do this. However, you can then either use your Phone as a hotspot if it supports it and your cell carrier suports the feature, or buy a Mifi device.


A Mifi device is a small cellular based router. It connects to a cellular network, and provides a small wifi network for other devices to connect to and use that Cellular connection.


Contact your cell carrier to find out what they offer in either case.
