It's been years since Apple launched its first new series of Tablet PCs called iPad, but the buzz about this luxurious gadget is kept alive by the release of higher versions, design / performance improvements and OS upgrades in iPad2, iPad3 and the latest iPad4 which has a crispy retina display, Updated A6x processor and iOS 6.

The iPhone family has also seen lots of dramatic changes in design and performance to catch up with the new market trend where Android powered devices are almost taking over.

Whichever Apple Mobile device you bought, this guide will show how you can configure it for internet access on your mobile network.

Some Mobile operators like MTN Nigeria also automatically push settings to Apple devices, users do not have to make any manual configurations by themselves. If you use Airtel Nigeria, Globacom, 9mobile Nigeria and other Networks, you might need to make the following changes to get connected.

iPad Internet connection settings

On the Home screen, Press the Settings icon

On the Side Menu shown, Select Cellular Data

• Make sure Cellular Data is switched ON
• Select "APN Settings"
• Enter your Network Operator Access Point.
  - I used Airtel Nigeria's apn which is Internet.ng.airtel. com
  
  

Internet Settings for iPhone users
Click Settings >> General >> Network >>
Make sure Cellular data is set as ON >> Click on Cellular data Network >> Enter APN.

That's it. If you can't get this working, just ask for help via the comment box.
NOTE: You must have recharged and subscribed to an Internet Bundle before you can get access to the internet.

Most mobile networks now provide NANO SIM cards for iPad users who used to cut their SIM cards to fit into the IPad SIM tray. The NANO SIM cards fits just fine, so cutting is a thing of the past now. You can recharge the Nano sim and subscribe to a bundle plan from your Mobile phone before putting it back into the iPad.

Hope this helps someone.
