Help, terminal config

Hi All,
how do I stop during a telnet session to another the station, also
running linux, The character I've just typed only being visible after
being echoed back from the other station.
This is not a really big problem at 9k6 , but at 1200 baud its a real
prob.
This does not happen if I telnet via linux node at the distant end, or
if I telnet to Tnos which is hanging off the kernel.
It occurs also when telneting from any source to the linux kernel.

I've tried setting both ends to TERM=vt100 with no effect, what I would
like is to see what I've type when I type it and 1 character at a time
echoed back from the far end.
If its a clue to what I've misconfigured on both machines , when I
logged out as su on the distant box, I had the following message at
logout
" 'network' unknown terminal type"
both boxes are running RH 5.2 Kernel 2.0.36 with the ax25 utils running.
both boxes also run fbb7.00g and Tnos 2.30.

So far I cant find anything in the manpages, or the documentation in
/usr/src

Any ideas ??
TIA
