If for instance you have a PC connected to the internet with an ethernet cable at a cable modem you can unplug the ethernet cable to the PC at the modem and Plug in a ethernet cable from the PS3 to the modem and a connection to the internet is possible. If the PC and PS3 are close enough you can just unplug the PC ethernet cable at the PC and move it over to the PS3. The first time you do this you need to go to the PS3 network setting and auto set the network settings. When you are done using the PlayStation 3 you just unplug the ethernet cable for the PS3 from the modem and plug the PC cable back into the modem for the PC to go back online or switch the cable back if it was close enough. When you get tired of doing this just purchase a router and plug the PS3 and PC into the router and plug the router into the modem.
You will require a network compatible game or the Dreamcast Web Browser disk to connect to the Internet. Connect the machine to an Ethernet cable as you would a personal computer and boot the disk. Note that many online games no longer have active servers and will not allow connections.
HDMI cables are used to connect camcorders to hdtv.
You can get by with the CAT 5 ethernet cable, but for just a little more you can purchase the CAT 6 ethernet cable which fits into the same slots and has better specs. Buy the best quality cable at a reduced price. I would recommend a name brand and not some cable online for 99 cents and a ton for the shipping from China or just there profit. I was able to purchase a 50 foot Belkin Gold Cat 6 for under $20 at EBAY including s/h and saw shorter cables for half that.
If you already have HughesNet satellite internet you might see how it connects to your computer. PS3 can only be connected with either a Ethernet Cable or a wireless signal. You can not use the USB port in the front of the PS3 to connect to the internet. PS3 is supposed to work only with broadband or DSL. The related link for Hughesnet listed a phone number and they indicated that while it would work it would provide poor online game performance and was not recommended. They did say that it connected to the PC or other device with an ethernet cable.
cat 5 Ethernet cable
A normal crossed ethernet cable will do.
A Cat 5(good) or Cat 6 (better) ethernet cable plugs into the router and the ethernet slot in the back of the PS3 for a wired internet connection.
Use a CAT-5, also known as an Ethernet cable.

All you need is an ethernet input on your laptop and a ethernet cable. Run the cable from the router output to the laptop input. Most wireless routers also include ethernet outputs in the back of the router. The laptop should discover the connection
The safest way would be an ethernet cable connected to a router. If you wish to connect wirelessly then do so to a WPA encrypted 802.11 wireless router. Use the software firewall built into your system also.
no...but a modem with a built-in wireless router would.
Most wireless routers also allow you to plug in 4 to 8 other Ethernet cables. It would not be a router otherwise, it would simply be a wireless access point. The cable connections are also faster than the wireless (at this point).
This will often come up because the Router you are talking about would be a wireless router. The computer is sensing that an ethernet cable is not plugged in from the router to your computer.
