In most cases you can get away with just using the modem directly connecting to the PS3.

hi

in my experiences you can connect directly to a modem or a router by ethernet. In other cases you can go to the network settings at the playstation menu and use a wireless connection and connect to your wireless router.

Different people, different connections, different results

What works for someone may not work for someone else, just the way it is.
