Could anyone please recommend a telnet or terminal emulator program for the QL? (that will emulate a vt100), preferably one that is free to download, or still available.

Thank you so much for your help.
I hope to create a serial port cable and try one of those wifi modem emulators, to connect to a BBS.

You might also want to try QLTERM: https://github.com/janbredenbeek/QLTerm
This includes a BASIC procedure to connect to telnet systems using an emulator which supports TCP/IP, such as QPC2 or Q-emulator. This way you don't need a serial-to-TCP emulator.

Thank you!
I just realized you wrote it!
I just tried it and it is exactly what I was looking for, thanks again.
