Will Digicel 4g internet work on cellular ipad mini and ipad air tablets?

I was wondering if anyone has used the digicel 4g for the internet on Ipad air and mini? Also, can you just switch out the sim from your iphone 5 to the tablet and get wifi from the same plan. Thanks, guys

If you bought them from a wireless provider (such as AT+T) and have a contract, they are most likely locked and will only work on that network. If you bought them at an Apple store they may be unlocked.

HarryS is correct, though if you're in good standing with your provider they will usually unlock them for you if you explain your situation. You should be able to swap sim cards, but it doesn't always work, I've had mixed results in the past doing that. Whatever you do, don't use data if you don't get a local plan.

I am going to chime in with a resounding agreement with TAH on this one. I used data off my iPhone, creating a hotspot for my iPad on a trip a while back. The prices were beyond exorbitant, and I will never do that again. Now, if there is no free wifi for me to connect... I am not getting online.

Lessons learned the hard way; we all got em...

If you get a Digicel sim they have very reasonable data plans. Worked great with the iPhones we brought in April.

Thanks guys, Sounds like a unlocked apple product will work .

It should, but my Droid Razr Maxx is unlocked, and a world-phone, and Digicel was unable to get their SIM to work. I had to reactivate my Lime phone...

You can get an unlock code for your phone online.

I have used iPhone and Android phones from home in Jamaica.
