[Coco] Coco 3 telnet through Drivewire?

If you're set on DECB, then Drivewire won't do what you're looking to do.

My solution, which is system agnostic, was to use tcpser on a Raspberry Pi
Zero. I stuffed the zero, along with a USB serial adapter, USB wifi
adapter, and powered USB hub, into an old external modem's case. With the
proper serial cable, I can connect it to any of my retro computers and
telnet out using any available terminal program for that computer.

For a CoCo, this means I would need to run Drivewire with an external
serial cart, and my "modem" on the bitbanger, if I were to need both
Driveware and the "modem" at the same time.
