But with remote telnet I got this

Really bad idea. Telnet is a really insecure protocol. If you can use
ssh, use it, instead.

Well, "localhost" always refers to the machine that you're already on.
Every machine sees itself as "localhost". You need a unique name, or
address, to connect to a remote machine.

You need to pass the port that you're using (whether for telnet or ssh)
through the ADSL modem/router to the computer running the server.
