A couple of points here.  Using ^T to teleport while confused does not 
(in Hack 1.0.2) have the effect of sending you to some other level.
The only method of teleportation I have found which does this is reading
a scroll of teleportation.  As for the wand of teleportation, as far as
I know, that only works on *other* creatures, not the Hacker himself.
(Unless you can bounce it off the wall at yourself.  Anyone know if
this works?)  As mentioned in another response to the original message,
you also need a ring of teleport control to avoid winding up on some
randomly selected level and to get the question about what level you
want to go to.
