Why can’t I connect to PTT? The official announcement of the batch kick industrial square will close the unencrypted Telnet connection to BBS from now on. At present, users can still use PTT through SSH and WebSocket encryption. The station also stated that if you used PTT with unencrypted Telnet connection before, it is recommended to change the password as soon as possible after changing the connection method. At present, some mobile apps and Chrome apps have been affected. Most mobile apps can be improved by changing the connection method. Chrome or any browser can also directly connect to term.ptt.cc to use PTT.
Mobile App: BePTT (Android), BePTT (iOS)
Chrome browser direct connection: term.ptt.cc

Change the connection method to use PTT
This time, the main purpose of the station is to shut down the unencrypted Telnet connection method in the past. Since many users still use this connection method, many people are affected. However, most mobile apps already have encrypted connection settings. You don’t need to log in to your account. You only need to select SSH or WebSocket connection on the settings page and then log in to use it. As for some Chrome applications that have not been updated for a long time, they cannot be directly applied, and can only be used by opening term.ptt.cc.
▲This warning will appear if you use an unencrypted Telnet connection.
▲If you don’t want to install an app or a browser plug-in, you can use PTT directly by typing term.ptt.cc on the website.
▲In the app, you can select SSH or WebSocket connection on the setting page when you are not logged in, and you can use it normally after changing it.
