Note that most modems these days make V.42 compression, which is LZW. BSD compression would be redundant.
Van Jacobsen compression is, however, good to use on a V.42 connection. It takes advantage of the redundancy of frame information in a point-to-point connection from one packet to the next to reduce the size of the header.
