If your host application is sending PC code page characters for box
drawing, etc, you probably should be using some form of ANSI terminal
emulation: ANSI, SCOANSI, AT386, QANSI, etc. In K95, choosing any of
these emulations automatically switches you to CP437.

For Telnetting to the OS/2 Telnet server, the sequence should be
something like this:
set terminal type ansi
set terminal remote-character-set cp850
Or whatever other code page OS/2 is using.
