You can also use http for file transfer. busybox includes both wget
(for retrieving files) and httpd (for providing files).

Hm, you can simply use busybox's telnet and telnetd on both ends.
Unless your PC is under Windows, that is.

Because remote host closed the connection. What do you see on the wire
(tcpdump)? Or strace of server process (strace -f -p `pidof telnetd`)?

Can you describe how exactly do you start telnetd on target board?
(command line + .config of busybox used at build time).
