[Woobm] - Can't see characters while typing

Mon Mar 12, 2018 5:14 pm

Hi there!

I'm testing Woobom. I've connected it to a RB951Ui-2HnD and to a RB3001UiAS-RM.
I've noticed that when I connect using telnet, I can't see what I type. Commands are working but I can't see them while I type.
Is it a fault?

Use a proper telnet client... try PuTTY

I'm seeing this too. In Chrome, characters are shown in real-time while tryping. In Putty, characters typed aren't displayed until the enter key is pressed. Windows 10 telnet client works properly.

Im seeing this same issue on Termius (ios ssh/telnet client) - Im also seeing quite a few garbage characters (but ~95% of output is fine). Is it possible i need to set a specific charset in termius? (currently utf-8 )

(im testing the woobm on a CCR1009 's usb port).

woobm is still a very handy / cool tool for when we need emergency serial access to a device! (and its web interface to serial works pretty well too, just would like to have telnet access as it easier to see/scroll output that way)
tks
