Try to use the logging features of this module, which will almost certainly help. It'll create a nice text file for each side of the telnet session that will allow you to see what's going on.
If you're running SSH on the box (probably a better idea anyhow), try the Net::SSH::Perl module, which I found to be fantastic. Easier and smarter than Net::Telnet, plus it's SSH. Hope this helps.
