i dont relly follow you mate :( sorry, if u have a router, (the box where your internet is coming from) then connect you new ethernet cable to there and the other end to your ps3 :) , if u have wireless then use wireless :)

Theres 2 ways you can connect a ps3.

1. Wireless internet connection.
2. Ethernet Cable.

I'm predicting you do not have wireless, so ill skip that.

Ethernet:
Ok, Ethernet as you know it is the cable you have linked your computer cable to the modem. It is usually Blue, but may vary and be black, tellow, white, or wateva colour you have or painted it with.

To connect your PS3 to the internet (using ethernet cables), First get the cable.
Secondly, there should be a port which the cable can fit into at the back of the ps3.
Third, you should have a modem that has more than 1 slot for the ethernet cables (i.e. modem router are usually 4ports)
Fourth step, simple plug both ends in. One into the ps3, the other into your modem.
If you do not have any other spare ports on your modem, you will haveto choose either to use ur PC or PS3 at any single time.
To get more of these ports, you have to buy a MINI HUB, switches or whateva you call them. They usually sell 4 port ones and they are fairly cheap.

Ok, first thing's first. If you don't know what things are, take pictures and post them so we can know what you have to do because you're not doing a good job of explaining. Remember, this is just text and you could have anything there.
