not support Compression. Is there anyway i can disable
it?

Yep, this should be an option, and I'll probably add it to
v1.4 at some point. As a workaround, however, you could edit
the config file manually.

After running at least once, the PuTTY default config is
stored in \system\apps\putty\defaults. This is a normal text
file you can edit with any text editor. Transfer it to a PC
or edit it on the device, locate the line

Compression = 1

and change it to

Compression = 0

This should disable compression.

Note that PuTTY supports multiple different configurations,
so you could save the no-compression setup to a different
file, and load that when you need to connect to the Cisco.
Using compression speeds up normal usage quite a bit,
especially over GSM data, and you might want to keep it
active for other use.
