Yeah, some modems need to be reset (ATZ) before sending over any additional info (e.g., data account on-the-fly setting with +CGDCONT), or, even, dialing.

IP header compression helps almost nothing to save bandwidth. V.42bis, on the other hand, is much more important to have because RLE encoders like that can save up to 30-40% bandwidth. Did you try to enable it? It's mostly referred to as 'body compression' in mobile phones and is one of the latest parameters of CGDCONT too.
