TCP, optionally with some telnet in band control sequences, but mostly just raw 
TCP.  I have used it to talk plain ascii to a telnettable BBS, I have used it 
to telnet into Linux systems, I have experimented with TPDD protocol and TS-DOS 
(with arguably less success than John -- it always failed trying to use any 
directory extensions), I've hooked it up to my Amiga and done zmodem transfers 
with lrzsz as well as used it with ADF writing utilities to write real floppies 
from remote image files, and really it works with anything that can talk to a 
normal tty device over TCP.

I have a similar unit for my Commodore 64 and have mostly used it for telnet 
BBSes and file transfers.
