Finally, something truly helpful. DougB628, After nearly 2-1/2 years you have given me a work-around. I can't thank you enough!

That was back when I used it over a 300 bps dial-up to connect to a BBS because the internet didn't exist yet. Talk about bringing back the old days. LOL Honestly, I didn't even know Telnet was still around or that you could connect to network gear buy such a method. You are a life saver! this is an excellent work-around!
