Can I use my ps3 as a wireless bridge to ...

If anyone could try this or already have, do you know if I can plug in the ethernet cable to the ps3 and use it to connect to my router wirelessly since I dont want to waste 100 bucks on a wireless bridge or 360 wireless adapter.Edit-Yes I changed my full question since it was answered. Can I use my ps3 as a wireless bridge to ...
I'm confused, how would connecting your PS3 to your router help you connect your 360? Your router does have ethernet ports? If so you should just get a real long ethernet cable. It's should run you around fourty bucks for a 100 ft one I think. It's a tad price, but much better than getter a wireless adapter.Can I use my ps3 as a wireless bridge to ...

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/category/category_slc.asp?CatId=1594%26name=Wireless-Ethernet-BridgesIm pretty sure this is what your looking for but honestly you may be better off just getting the wireless adapter even though its overpriced. These are about the same in price and the cheapest being a $40 refurb.I'm curious as to why you spent money on a 360 with so many PS3 exclusives coming out the next few months.
If you have a laptop just connect it to the 360.

You can try if you want, but you're probably going to have to just go with my plan.

I had to buy a 50 ft ethernet cord to hook my 360 up. If nothing else, you can go a while with out live and get the cord you you can more easily afford it.
Anyone know for sure of a 360 to ps3 connection?
