I just signed up to 3 and registered my SIM, but when I go into the APN settings, it's blank. Anyone on 3 tell me what the iPad APN is?

Before you commit to 12 months, bear in mind that 3 do a pay as you go sim , with 12GB preloaded, valid for 12 months, hence you have 1 year to use the 12gb. All for £35 on ebay, you just need to cut down the sim.
Hi
I bough a ipad on release on O2-UK pay as u go. but now want to move to 3, I got their micro-sim and registered it. I switch of my ipad, insert micro sim and connect to itunes which auto powers it up. I assumed it may install a network update through itunes but it seems three do not have this setup with apple.
I have no APN settings, i tried using 3 internet with a reboot but still my internet does not work on 3.
Any other ideas?
it just shows full signal and says 3. however if i go to manual roam it shows
3
3 (3G)
if i lock it to use 3G only it still does not say 3G but has a tick next to 3G on the network choice screen.
I have a USB dongle on 3 which shows full 3G signal.
Now want to move to 3, I got their micro-sim and registered it.
When did you register it? It can take up to 24 hours to activate (Three say up to 3 hours is typical). When it does "3G" appears alongside the bars in the signal strength display.
Try:
3internet or three.co.uk

Also check if you got the 3G symbol next to the 3 carrier name. (Turn off wifi if that shows).
I tried eBay.co.uk and could not find any 12GB SIM for less than £60. Can you provide a link please?Before you commit to 12 months, bear in mind that 3 do a pay as you go sim , with 12GB preloaded, valid for 12 months, hence you have 1 year to use the 12gb.

Can you tell me if "Personal Hotspot" is disabled on your prepaid Three SIM card?I got a 3GB/3Month Three sim from ebay, cut it down to size and it worked a treat. Used it all weekend in London with no problem.

I could not see this option form the screen shots above.
And according to Three's web site. They only support tethering if you have a monthly rolling contract with them. Is that correct?
The poster above me dug the thread up from the grave, I didn't realize that, sorry. 12GB 12 month now is £70. In two years and 100% increase.This thread is 2 years old so its likely that they don't offer the 12GB sim any more.
