If your iPad keeps connecting to a network you no
longer want, go to Settings > Wi-Fi and tap the ‘i’
next to the network in question. Now tap ‘Forget this
Network’ to remove it from the list. If you want to use it
again, you have to re-enter its password.

When the iPad connects to the Internet using the
mobile data network, you see the 3G, EDGE or GPRS
icon in the status bar. If you travel outside your usual mobile
network coverage, you can use 3G by turning Data Roaming
on: Settings > Mobile Data > Mobile Data Options.

Roaming charges may apply. To avoid these
charges turn Data Roaming off. You can monitor
your mobile network data usage by going to: Settings >
Mobile Data and see Mobile Data Usage. Settings may
vary depending on the carrier in question.
Checking Wi-Fi Strength.
There is a Wi-Fi indicator on the status bar at the top of
the screen, depicting the signal strength. The more bars
visible, the stronger the signal.

You can share Wi-Fi passwords between devices
running iOS 11 or later. Just go to the password
screen on the device you want to take onto the network
and a prompt appears on a nearby iOS/iPadOS device
that’s already connected.
Joining a 4G or 3G Network
Wi-Fi Assist.
You can set up your iPad to ignore weak wireless
signals, sticking to a mobile connection instead. If you
connect to a Wi-Fi network but the signal drops, it
automatically switches to mobile data. Go to Settings >
Mobile to switch it on. Obviously, this doesn’t apply to
Wi-Fi only iPads, as they don’t have mobile connectivity.
