Buy another cable they are cheap. You can always plug in the PS3 and unplug whatever was and switch back and forth like you would if you needed to purchase a router. That does work better if you at least have two ethernet cables and only need to switch at the modem between PS3 cable and Computer cable unplugging the device you are not using and then plug in the one you want too.

Find a Broadband or DSL internet provider or if you already have one and are already using it connect a router to your modem.

The cable that was going from the modem to your computer now goes from your router to your computer.

First you must have an internet service provider and it then depends on what equipment they have provided. An ethernet cable will connect to a modem or a router and go to the device for a wired connection. I used a Cat 6 ethernet cable and a router to split the signal from my first cable modem to a router and then from my PS3 and PC connected 2 more ethernet cables to the back of the router. Later Comcast sent a gateway modem and that already had WiFi and more than one spot to plug in the ethernet cables and I put my router away

Is there anything besides Ethernet cables or an aoss buttons to get internet access for your ps3?

You must use WiFi or an ethernet cable for PS3 internet. You have to have internet service. The PS3 only allows you to connect to your internet service. If you do not have internet service you must purchase it. If you have internet and do not have WiFi you must buy a Wireless Router or an Ethernet Cable to run from you modem to the PS3. When your PS3 searches for a WiFi signal it can find one for your neighbor or nearby business and also the one for your system. The most stable WiFi connections are the ones that also have a password. The PlayStation Network has a Load of trouble shooting information that will help you connect. see related link
