I use iPad 1 wi-fi with a couple of navigation programs, AA Road Atlas & OS Mapping no problem. Being an iPad 1 it has GPS built in but should be the same as iPad 2 with a GPS dongle.

These programs work because the mapping data is downloaded into the iPad, therefore only need the GPS signal to function.

You would only need a 3G connection (or wireless link to router) if you wanted to use live mapping e.g. Google Maps where the content is down loaded as you view/move.

That's my experience, hope it helps.
