I cannot see anything in the console

Hello, i tried to connect with the normal cmd and administrator cmd. if I tipped all the comand "telnet httpbin.org 80" It seems to be connected but at the console is nothing to see, when i tipped i don't see what i 'm tipping, and at the moment i do enter than comes the connection fail 400. If i do step by step, so like i've see on the Questions i go into "telnet", then when i tipe the rest "open httpbin.org 80" at first try it but then doesnt connect at all, the comes a message "Press any button to continue" if i do one, it doesn't has a reaktion and continue with the same message, if i try to do it again that comes the connection fail 400...

Thanks, Pablo

I'm having the same issue. I'm on Windows. I've tried using Command Prompt and Powershell in both Session and Command mode. In Session Mode, I get the 400 error after a blank screen. In Command mode, it just seems to timeout without any return or error message. I get as far as Connection to httpbin.org... And it's not really clear if it's timing out or there's some other error.
