Anyways, i'll ask, if it's not right place to - i'll leave and ask in a new thread.
So, since there's a busybox and there's an ability to run terminal i was wondering if i can use telnet in it. I tried and found out that it doesnt work properly. When i try to connect to the local (192.168.1.*) PC where's no telnet-server running it does it's job and gives me output (connection refused etc). But whenever i try to connect to any "global" telnet server (by ip or domain name) it just hangs my Glo and never gives any output (nslookup works fine), i have to force power off to make my way out of there.
So i wonder if there's any way to fix it.
Thanks in advance.

UPD: looks like it can't handle any server answer. kinda strange..
Maybe there are several issues. I think one issue is that kbterminal is not a real dash terminal. It is just a one-shot thing. It just writes one command into a new shell, and waits for the answer. At the moment kbterminal is displaying the answer, the shell is already closed. when you chose "file mode" instead of "direct mode", the text of the input line is written to a file and the file is executed in a new shell. That gives you the possibility for a little bit complexer tasks, but it is still a single shot. I am not sure whether I can make myself understood in this way.
