It has been mentioned before, but BBSing is not well supported on tablets, and iOS is the worst platform of the lot. Android at least
has a
couple of point systems, and you can also run DOS setups under Magic DOSBox. But iOS you're limited to native telnet/SSH terminals that
aren't designed for BBSing.

Are you able to try a different web browser on your iPad, or is Safari the only option?
Ultimately you're using the same fTelnet as anyone else. The only thing that's different is the browser you're running it in. Perhaps
that's doing something weird when it comes to websocket.

Yeah, I know Apple has some good products. They just seem to do things a bit differently though.. Another thing they do a bit
differently
is they make keyboards with only a 'delete' key and no backspace key (which was in another thread on Dove-Net recently).
Years ago, I briefly had a Mac Mini and was running my BBS in a VM with Windows 2000 on it. Overall I'm just not too keen on Apple
though..
These days, they don't make any computers I'd really want to buy.

That's probably not a fault of the device itself though. It just seems like there's a lack of developers who want to write
BBS-compatible
telnet clients for iOS.
Years ago, I used to have an iPod Touch, and there used to be an app in the Apple App Store called iSSH that was compatible with ANSI and
made a fairly good BBS client. But I've heard iSSH has since disappeared from the Apple App Store.

That seems to be true.
When Steve Jobs was absent from Apple the first time (from the late 80s to late 90s), I remember Apple almost disappearing in the late
90s.
When Steve Jobs went back to Apple, it seems Apple picked up again big time when they introduced things like the iMac, iPod, and later
the
iPhone and iPad, etc..
I wouldn't imagine a company's success would be so tied to just one person. I would think they would have hired more people at Apple who
are creative enough to have good ideas to keep the company going.
I think Apple has had a relatively recent tendency to be successful introducing products nobody thought they wanted or needed though.
Before Apple's iPhone and iPod Touch came out, I never thought about having something like that. And still for a while, I didn't think a
smartphone would be really useful for me, but now I've had a smartphone for years (though I've always used Android smartphones). And
their
iPad is the first tablet of its kind that I remember. I think tablets are useful, though I don't have one. I had an Android tablet at
one
point, and later a Microsoft Surface Pro, but I ended up selling those.

One thing is, in generally I just don't really use a touch screen. I suppose I'm just not used to it, but I also don't want to get
finger
smudges on the screen. So I tended to use it like a laptop - But its keyboard doesn't have a stiff connection with the screen, so if you
pick it up, the keyboard will flop down unless you hold both the keyboard and the screen. I tended to use it like a laptop, and I
preferred
to have an actual laptop rather than a tablet that can be used like a laptop. I know the Surface Pro has a stand, but I think laptops
are
easier to pick up and move when I want to. Also, the Surface Pro has a bit of a small screen for my liking.. Its small size does make
it
easier to carry, but I like something with a bigger screen.
There are also laptops with touch screens. Lenovo makes some fairly good ones, IMO. There are some people I work with at work who have
a
Lenovo laptop with a touch screen, who seem to like them. I also use Lenovo, but min doesn't have a touch screen.

The Microsoft Surface Pro is a lot like any Intel-based Windows system on the market. If it's portability you're after, then maybe it
will
be a good device for you. Though for a BBS, I think it's good to have a dedicated computer to run the BBS on, which you can leave

i dont see you making fun of dm.
i hear the new lenovo can go up to 17 hrs max but ibm says only
13.
What does IBM know about Lenovo's machines? Is IBM doing their ownon them?
testing
IBM sold their laptop manufacturering to Lenovo... i would hazard a guess that they still test them...
ibm is merged with lenovo.

ibm is merged with lenovo.
I looked it up and saw that IBM has made a deal with Lenovo for Lenovo to provide the IBM-branded computers to IBM's clients:
https://www.ibm.com/ibm/us/en/pcannouncement
I don't think this means IBM has "merged" with Lenovo though. As far as I know, they are still 2 separate companies.

When Steve Jobs was absent from Apple the first time (from the late 80s to late 90s), I remember Apple almost disappearing in the late 90s. When Steve Jobs went back to Apple, it seems Apple picked up again big time when they introduced things like the iMac, iPod, and later the iPhone and iPad, etc..

People have alluded that he brought most of the tech from NeXt and that MacOS was helped greatly by the IP that Steve brought.

It has been mentioned before, but BBSing is not well supported on tablets,
and iOS is the worst platform of the lot. Android at least
has a
couple of point systems, and you can also run DOS setups under Magic DOSBox.
But iOS you're limited to native telnet/SSH terminals that
aren't designed for BBSing.

Years ago, when I had an iPod Touch, there used to be an iOS app called iSSH that had good support for BBS ANSI and seemed to work fairly well.
I never tried uploading or downloading files with it though. And I've heard that iSSH has since been removed from the Apple App Store. It sounds like there haven't been any other BBS telnet clients for iOS
since then.

Unfortunately, until you get that MSP, you're going to be stuck with poor BBS support. For BBSing, anything would be better. If you
were
in my part of the world, I'd gladly offer a free netbook. Got a bucketload surplus, and they make great BBS terminals running Lubuntu,
SyncTerm and Multimail. That setup is what I use for on the road, combined with a 4G modem/wifi hotspot.

It just seems like there's a lack of developers who want to write
BBS-compatible telnet clients for iOS.
there's a lack of devs that care to create/maintain BBS apps at all... BBSes are an extremely small niche market these days...

You shouldn't need any special file transfer apps from a mobile phone/tablet to a PC. You can just plug it into a USB port and browse the file system and copy files back & forth.

It sounds like you might have a problem with fTelnet. I'm not the fTelnet developer. The fTelnet developer is Rick Parrish and his BBS,
which you can test with, is here:
https://www.ftelnet.ca/demos/basic-demo/
If fTelnet on the iPad works fine there, but not on Vertrauen, then that's my problem. But if it doesn't work on Rick's BBS, it isn't
