If the UE tries to connect to the eNB and is unable to AUTH the SIM card then 
it will blacklist after 3 or 4 attempts.
At that point the UE must be rebooted to connect.  I have seen this happen many 
times back last January.
No way around it, its a LTE thing..

On the UE’s dropping from 50-60Mbit to 2Mbit, what I have seen is its an upload 
issue.  The Upload QAM is SO low that it cannot perform well on the download.
A reboot brings it around and the speeds go back to normal.
What I have been told is the UE/eNB will lower the QAM rate due to interference 
or other issues and it will lower the QAM faster then its rises it back up.

What are the “other issues” you ask?  On the CPE7000 it was bad boards that 
would cause high bit rate errors inside the radio causing it to think it has 
interference.
Replacing the UE would fix it.  I also think the old crappy POE injectors 
causes issues as well.. cannot prove it..

I have a UE that did this yesterday, I will watch it and if it continues to 
lower is QAM over the period of a day or so then we will replace the UE.  
(CPE7000)

Also watching the tlsyslog on the EPC will give you all sorts of good 
information as to what a UE is doing, or not doing correctly.  I highly suggest 
you watch it for bad UE’s.
