What do I need to hook up a PS3 to the internet?

[Melanie T]

I got my husband a PS3 for xmas and now he wants to have internet access for it. The PS3 is in the living room wired in the walls to our projector. Our computer is in the bedroom with i guess its broadband internet (not cable or dialup). I know we need some sort of a router.....any suggestions as to what I should get? I dont know any of this stuff and I wanted to get whatever he needs while hes out of town. Dont know if its important to know that the computer is a Mac ... is a router all I would need or is there more to it than that? Thanks so much! p.s. our internet on the Mac is not wireless.......

yes you need a router and plug your main internet connection into the router then plug in a wire running from the router into the ps3 and another wire pluged into the same router but that one running from the router to you computer and you should both be able to get onto the internet find a nice router at www.newegg.com
