SOLUTION FOR MTN!!!!!
Connect iPad to PC using USB cable.
In iTunes, backup up your device, then select "Restore". iPad will reset and go through initial setup. When asked where to restore from, select appropriate option (where you backed up too). When iPad is retored and itunes is running, a message will pop up on iTunes, and ask if you would like to update your carrier settings. DO NOT SELECT TO UPDATE CARRIER SETTINGS!!! Then, go to settings->Cellular Data-> APN Settings. APN for cellular data: internet APN for Internet tethering: internet ; no need for usernames and passwords.

DONE

Confident that it should work for all networks, but have only tried on MTN.

HI

I can confirm that this does work, tested it with Iphone 4s and it works will test the ipad and advise.

Update :

Went to Cellular data/APN Settings/Cellular Data "internet" in APN field.
Restarted it still no hot spot.

Retore the iPad 2 to:
Version 5.1.1
Carrier : Carrier 12.0

Any one managed to get it ?

No hotspot in iPad 2, only in iPad 3.
