Heya folks!

I've had broadband internet access for some years now with ntl/virgin media. I have an ntl modem hub as per connecting my pc to the internet. I have had a ps3 since crimbo and enjoy playing with mates at my house on multiplayer games such as fifa........BUT i've never been online with the ps3 thus far.

By the sounds of it i'm missing out on a whole new world of gaming with endless fun waiting to be had. The thing is i actually bought an ehternet cable without realising until i took it home that there are no spare ways at the back of the ntl modem hub to place ehternet cables in.

Therefore my PC can only enjoy the braodband expirience and my ps3 is growing very jealous of it!!

I have asked around in certain places regards is there a 2 way splitter that i can attactch to the ehternet port on the hub so that i could have the ps3 and pc online package running at the same time? I have not had a good enough response as yet.

Does anyone know if there is anything i can buy to get this to work other than going in a totally different direction and updating everything to wireless?

Yes.

A router, not a wireless one if you wish not to, although they will do just fine for cabled connections, as most still have ethernet ports.

Get googling for a netgear router, they are user friendly.
