I doubt need anything peculiar in Telnet to communicate with a router.
They would typically be designed to be very vanilla.

Assuming telnet can talk to it at all. I have two consumer-grade routers.
The Netgear responds to telnet, the Trendnet doesn't seem to.

As Roedy says, the client is not a factor.

Right. my router talks http. I assumed he read in the docs somewhere
you needed telnet.

IIRC, there are a couple of CISCO routers which respond to telnet.
Note that he specifically asked for CISCO.

Actually, they specifically asked for Cisco, but misspelled it "cisco" in
their message. (Also they misspelled "Java", "VBScript", "I" and "DHCP".)

Proper nouns really should be properly spelled.

In any event, the answer to the OP's question is that there is no special
telnet application for Cisco, or any other, routers.

Why Telnet? Telnet would be an easier protocol for remote automated
configuration and troubleshooting. This would be for commercial
routers implemented by the boxcar full.
