That's exactly what we did in the end—used a commercial VPN and provided internet to the device over the USB cable. Could have probably used a Tailscale on a VPS somewhere too.

What he meant to say is, all your efforts were of no use, just use VPN in the ipad and the location will change.

But I suppose, in this case Apple is deliberately using the wifi signals, not relying on IP so "just use VPN" doesn't work.
