That's strange. We use NCSA Telnet over a Phonenet/Kinetics connection and
haven't encountered any of the "bugs" you mention. We use it on Mac+'s,
Mac SE's and Mac II with several zones on our global network and have yet to
see the system crashing "like there was no tomorrow". What version of the
system software are you using and what version of Telnet?

I'm sorry but Red Ryder doesn't do anywhere as decent job of terminal emulation
as Telnet.
