I have checked line clarity using linecheck over this medium.
I expected it to be completely transparent, but it is not.
However, the only bad character seems to be 255.
The ~/.term/termrc.telnet I use
(the .telnet is the name of the term connection, see above)
contains:
baudrate off
escape 255
ignore 255
timeout 600
Perhaps it could be improved by diddling,
I am getting a throughput of only about 30k cps over
a long-haul connection through a slow firewall.
Ftp can move about 100k cps over the same route.
A realistic baudrate might avoid some timeouts.
