Re: OT: Telenet to terminal server dropping -ubuntu 10 driving

If the problem follows the "originating" port, then your laptop
is triggering the issue, but not necessarily being the culprit :)

If the other router is the same brand, then it could have the same
issue. That was why I was asking for another telnet server (i.e. not
a (cisco ?) router/switch.
