The title says it all. Note that I'm using a non-US layout, Norwegian, so I can't create the Ctrl+] combination. I've found the trick before, but can't find it.

Not sure what layout you have, but for me in Finnish layout it is Ctrl + å.

Type Ctrl+] to enter the telnet menu, then enter quit. For more commands, see man telnet.
Edit: Haven't noticed that you can't type Ctrl+], but I would be surprised if there isn't a way to type that with every keyboard. But you can change the escape character with the commandline option -e [char].

2@trygvis: Found out why it didn't work:
-e ymakes theykey the escape key. To useCtrl+yyou have to use-e ^y(that is the circumflex character).– DarkDustApr 4, 2011 at 10:32 -
1Ah, doh. Thanks! Ctrl-å is the easiest for me (less to type), but very nice to know anyway. Cheers! Apr 4, 2011 at 10:39

not all keyboard layouts contain "common" symbols. For example Italian keyboard lacks
~and backtick, French keyboard lacks@which sometimes makes programming almost impossible on inconvenient without changing layout. In this case Finnish keyboard has no brackets. German keyboard, too– phuclvMay 24, 2017 at 3:00 -
To answer your specific question: Ctrl+å then enter quit.
But to make it more fun it depends on your layout a lot:
(Remember on a Mac Ctrl is your ⌃ key)
- Default: Ctrl+[
- Dutch, Belgian: Ctrl+$
- French: Ctrl+6
- Finnish, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish: Ctrl+å
- Swiss: Ctrl+¨
- German: Ctrl+ü
- Hungarian and Turkish: Ctrl+5
- Portuguese: Ctrl+´
- Canadian French: Ctrl+ç
then enter quit.
For more commands, see man telnet.
You can also use the command "set escape" followed by any key you want to set the escape character.
example: telnet> set escape ctrlp
I often don't remember the key-sequences... except at the telnet prompt this sequence works: telnet> quit
followed by the return key.
Ctrl5 (back to telnet) and then Ctrld (back to shell)
... helped me on following constellation
- AWS Web Terminal (in Firefox)
- Mac OS
- German keyboard layout
With UK keyboard is Ctrl ] then Ctrl \
