Excellent tutorial on remote communications and RRAS

Author gives one of the best remote communications/WAN technology summaries of any book I've read. Easy read. Coverage on all topics was well done and the book was everything it was promoted by the author to be. Author had a good writing style with lots of personality. Good screen capture shots and directions.
