Hi there!
I'm pretty new to Telnet in Arduino, what I was trying to do is connect to the telnet server and try to login.
After connecting to the server the serial monitor print out this message.
connecting...
connected

by the way, the code im using is from one of the examples.(Examples -> Ethernet -> TelnetClient)
tried changing baudrate from 9600 to 115200. still no luck.
Thank you in advance

Does the baud rate in the program match that of the Serial monitor ?

Yep, still no luck. I tried changing b.rate from my code & Serial Monitor.

this is OK. the telnet client server attempts binary handshake protocols. if it doesn't get a response, it will not continue with handshake protocol.
is the client on Linux? read "man telnet"

I'm trying to connect to Mikrotik Router. Telnet Client enabled at port 8090.

Telnet client
This sketch connects to a a telnet server (http://www.google.com)
using an Arduino Wiznet Ethernet shield. You'll need a telnet server
to test this with.
Processing's ChatServer example (part of the network library) works well,
running on port 10002. It can be found as part of the examples
in the Processing application, available at
http://processing.org/
Circuit:
* Ethernet shield attached to pins 10, 11, 12, 13

this code is one of the examples, i just added some codes, I can connect but the response is this

Juraj:
ChatServer is telnet server not client. you will not connect to telnet server with it
Sorry, what I mean is I can connect to the Telnet server(Mikrotik Router) but serial monitor gives me unreadable characters. I think connection is working. Just the serial monitor output.
ok. sorry, I didn't look at the sketch.
the answer is still valid, but the server, not the client attempts telnet handshake
the telnet client server attempts binary handshake protocols. if it doesn't get a response it will not continue with it.
It's a poor implementation that "doesn't continue." The protocol has very well defined default behavior.
(OTOH, it does NOT have well-defined behavior in the absence of responses. It just usually works.)
only the server, not the client attempts telnet handshake
Nonsense. A telnet client can initiate option negotiations as well.
Does your connection work in spite of the extra characters? If so, I'd just ignore them...
@westfw, I edited my comments
