Hi Carlo, Please read this thread on the LEDE forum: https://forum.lede-project.org/t/where-is-a-telnet-client/361/6 To quote hnyman: "Previously telnet client was part of the busybox multi-utility, but when the "telnet server" was disabled in 2015 and ssh was set to be the only login method, also the "telnet client" capability was removed. If you want to have telnet client easily available, compiling a firmware that has modified busybox options so that telnet is again in busybox is maybe the easiest option.".
