Method, System and Devices for Connecting a User Equipment, UE, to a Telecommunication Network

A method of connecting User Equipment (UEs) to a telecommunication network via an access node of the telecommunication network, the method comprising:

• upon detection of a released connection between a first UE and the telecommunication network, storing configuration parameters related to the released connection;
• subsequently receiving a request for a further connection from a requesting UE, wherein the requesting UE is the first UE or a second UE;
• and
• based on a time value associated with the released connection, determining whether the stored configuration parameters related to the released connection can be re-used in relation to the request for the further connection.

A network node arranged for connecting User Equipment (UE) to a telecommunication network via an access node of the telecommunication network, the network node comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• at least one memory storing executable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, configure the network node to:
• upon detection of a released connection between a first UE and the telecommunication network, storing configuration parameters related to the released connection;
• subsequently receive a request for a further connection from a requesting UE, wherein the requesting UE is the first UE or a second UE;
• and
• based on a time value associated with the released connection, determine whether the stored configuration parameters related to the released connection can be re-used in relation to the request for the further connection.
