NEW April 27, 2017: Telnet link-clicking works using the JuiceSSH Android client (https://juicessh.com/). This is very nice for use with newer Chromebooks that support Android apps. One need only click on a telnet link from within the Chrome browser and JuiceSSH is automatically invoked and the link followed.
This is not intended to be an exhaustive listing of cluster nodes and skimmer sites accessible by telnet. Rather, its goal is to list a representative selection of normally reliable and consistent nodes. If you operate a relatively problem free and open telnet accessible site and would like it added to the list, please send me an E-mail with the relevant details (including whether your IP is static or dynamic). I am no longer listing nodes that require passwords to log in. It may take me a while to add your data because updates to my DX pages are a higher priority than new entries to this list. Please be patient. Likewise, if users experience chronic problems with a node I list here, I'd like to hear about it too. Remember though, all telnet accessible nodes will experience problems from time to time; it's just the nature of the Internet; so don't be too quick to report a problem. All communication concerning this page may be sent to Bill@ng3k.com.
Although I have not used them myself, readers of this page have recommended PuTTY and Tera-Term, both of which are available free. I have use industrial strength and not free SecureCRT. Chromebook Android users may want to try the JuiceSSH client
