If you want to telnet *from* your firewall, you don't need to open
telnet on your firewall. Add:

pass out quick on <outif> proto tcp from <fwip> to <modemip> port = 23 flags S keep state

Remember to add a default block rule:

block in quick all

where outif is the name of the outside interface, fwip is Ip of that
interface, and modemip is the IP of your modem.
