Probably iCloud-locked set. Once unlocked, it will never work with SIM again. No other way.

Yup they are very responsive. Run ipad diagnostic, they said sim hardware no problem. Need to try new sim. I only try my iphone sim with my ipad. I thought iphone n ipad sim card are just the same? Is it ipad need sim card with broadband plan only?

Hmm, please try new sim...
Yup, if you are currently using postpaid plan, you can apply for gadget sim - sim card that allows only sharing data with your data pool, can't make phone call/sms.
So far I have tried Digi and Maxis - both have gadget sim, not sure about other telco though, can try ask =)

Alternatively, get a new prepaid plan, reload some money, and purchase internet plan.
