Telnet in script Connection closed by foreign host

Hello,
I'm trying to learn and automate some tasks via a script, but my first ever script failed with "connection closed by foreign host" error. I checked the other discussions but it didn't help. Could you please help?
Code:
#!/bin/bash
( sleep 2
 echo open x.x.x.x 23
sleep 2
echo user
sleep 2
echo pass
sleep 2
)  |  telnet

The following options work without script;
  1. # telnet x.x.x.x
  2. # telnet
    > open x.x.x.x
The script also works for other in-band connection IPs, which directly request user and password without viewing any system info.

We connect this node over auxiliary port via a modem. On putty x.x.x.x 23 connects to our device and x.x.x.x 22 to our server. I got some wireshark captures; the TELNET session continues negotiation, and suddenly interrupts.

Please wrap all code, files/data, input & output/errors in CODE tags.
It makes it easier to read and preserves multiple spaces for indenting or fixed-width data.

irsend [options] DIRECTIVE REMOTE CODE [CODE...] DESCRIPTION
Asks the lircd daemon to send one or more CIR (Consumer Infra-Red) commands. This is intended for remote control of electronic devices such as TV boxes, HiFi sets, etc. DIRECTIVE can be: SEND_ONCE - send CODE [CODE ...] once SEND_START - start repeating CODE SEND_STOP - stop repeating CODE LIST - list configured remote items SET_TRANSMITTERS - set transmitters NUM [NUM ...] SIMULATE - simulate IR event REMOTE is the name of a remote, as described in the lircd configuration file. CODE is the name of a remote control key of REMOTE, as it appears in the lircd configuration file. NUM is the transmitter number of the hardware device. For the LIST DIRECTIVE, REMOTE and/or CODE can be empty: LIST "" "" - list all configured remote names LIST REMOTE "" - list all codes of REMOTE LIST REMOTE CODE - list only CODE of REMOTE The SIMULATE command only works if it has been explicitly enabled in lircd. -h --help display usage summary -v --version display version -d --device use given lircd socket [/var/run/lirc/lircd] -a --address=host[:port] connect to lircd at this address -# --count=n send command n times EXAMPLES
