    ive done this before, you need to enable internet connection sharing on the 3 internet connection
    Control panel-> network and sharing centre -> manage network connections -> right click 3datamodem /properties ->click sharing tab on top ->click allow other users... select your lan from the drop down list . click ok

    you can connect your laptop directly to the ps3 with a crossover cable / not sure if an ethernet cable works, it probably does, or you can use an ethernet cable to connect your pc to a wireless router and pick up the router on your ps3.

    Just use the automatic settings on the ps3 and it should work.
    If it doesnt it might be a firewall issue , when i did it the firt time mcafee was blocking it somehow.
