The best and potentially cheapest alternative is find a Wi-Fi hotspot somewhere (preferably free) and do your major downloading on that.

AT&T 3G service is a good alternative if you are in a good AT&T 3G reception area, but in order to use that you must have purchased a 3G AT&T model iPad.

If that is what you have, it is a simple matter to subscribe to the service. On your iPad go to Settings, then Cellular Data, and sign up for the service.

Another option, if you have a phone and provider that permits, is to use your phone as a Wi-Fi "Hotspot" and connect to it from your iPad. See current thread "[iPad] Dumb question :)  tethering / mobile hot spot."

Good luck, and let us know if you have any questions.

Best,

Jim

Subject: [iPad] New iPad Question

 

 

I have a new iPad.  Only 56k dial-up is available in the area where I live - no DSL.  There is an AT&T tower nearby and friends with AT&T phone service report good connections. 

 

It took over 6 hours to download the iTunes software, then another hour to sign up with iTunes.  Now I have the iPad connected to iTunes and installing a software upgrade.  It says it will take 51 hours to download.  Is there any other way to get the update or should I just use the old verson?   

 

My plan was to get AT&T service for the iPad.  How can I do that? 

 

Nancy
