You might look at PC/IP, a sort-of-multi-thread implementation of TCP/IP,
including Telnet and FTP clients and servers.  I used it a while ago simply
to connect two machines with 3Com 3C501's with no other servers on the
network, and it worked quite well.  Its originator is a ham, KA9Q, so I
call it KA9QPCIP.  I found it on a Fido board out near Bakersfield, CA.,
but I don't think I could dredge up the number at short notice.  I have a
feeling that it is more widely available than that: I can only suggest that
you look in "all the usual places" where shareware is found.  Lame, I know.

Anyway, it seemed to be a pretty straightforward Telnet client and should,
I am led to imagine, talk successfully over any Ethernet to any other TCP/IP
thing out there.  (Shows how much *I* know about all this, huh?)  The price
was right, at least.
