Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
While the name might indicate that it includes everything your laptop needs to get along out in the wild, Monster Cable's Laptop Survival Kit doesn't quite go that far--no water, aspirin, or flare guns here. Rather, the kit includes a 10-foot Monster Internet cable, an RJ-11 phone cable splitter, a 6-inch splitter-to-wall cable, and a convenient travel pouch, which is enough to help you with the sometimes ominous task of connecting your laptop to the Internet and staying connected, either while traveling or at home.
Our favorite aspect about Monster Cable's products is the high quality of construction. This is probably one of the sturdiest, most attractive cables you can find for your computer. The cables feature rubber grips and a thick, tangle-free design that makes it especially easy to connect and reconnect the cables over and over.
The LED-lighted splitter is a nice addition: it allowed us to see when a phone call was coming in so we could instantly reconnect instead of waiting around to get an error message. However, looking at the telephone light made us wish we could somehow thwart the incoming call instead of simply watch as we got booted offline. And even though the included cable is 10 feet long, you'll probably want to sit close by the splitter so you can actually see when a call is coming. You can also simply plug the 10-foot cable into the wall, attach it to the splitter, and connect the splitter to your laptop with the 6-inch cable--that way you'll be able to see the LED indicator at all times.
So who'll want the Laptop Survival Kit? It's a great, easy-to-transport package for anyone who travels frequently, who still connects using an analog phone line, or who wants the highest quality phone cables.

Please, oh please, not more Monster Cable telephone cord.,
By Phaedrus (Seattle, WA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Monster Cable LTSK100 Laptop Survival Kit Featuring Internet Cable, Splitter and Travel Pouch 10 Foot Internet Cable with 2-Way Splitter (Personal Computers)
The phone splitter included in this package is reasonably nice, if you need a light to tell you when you're online. I would imagine that most people don't need that, however, and a much cheaper phone splitter from any number of sources will probably work just as well.There is simply no reason to pay this kind of money for Monster Cable's telephone cords, whether sold separately or included in a kit like this. In audio systems, there's at least some theoretical justification for spending extra money on high-end cables for fractionally better sound quality; that justification does not exist for modems. Your modem's data will go through miles and miles of phone lines that are completely out of your control; the few feet of phone cable you use to connect your modem to the wall simply won't make a difference, unless the cable is actually defective somehow. An inexpensive phone cable will provide connections that are just as fast and just as reliable as Monster's overpriced cable. Save the extra money--or use it to get a slightly better modem, since increases in modem quality _can_ have a significant impact.

Just buy a two-line plug attachment,
By "andy81" (prescott, az United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Monster Cable LTSK100 Laptop Survival Kit Featuring Internet Cable, Splitter and Travel Pouch 10 Foot Internet Cable with 2-Way Splitter (Personal Computers)
The only thing this will do is allow you to use a phone and computer independently on the same phone line without switching cords. Does not allow use of phone and computer at same time, does not announce incoming calls.
