Hey. Im doing this to learn, but I was only testing with compression going one way and no decompression just to make sure it was all working. However if I implement decompression, then everything should be working 100%, and I wont have to worry about breaking TCP or modifying sequence numbers or anything of the sort. But thanks for the suggestions.
