Go to:

Settings -> Network Settings - > Internet Connection Test

if that fails then goto:

Settings -> Netowrk Settings - > Internet Connection Settings

Choose Wired connection and follow the steps ...

Is your PS3 connected to the internet ?

I connected the wired from the PS3 to the PC. I don't know if its connected to the internet.

You have to connect the wire from your ROUTER or MODEM to the PS3.
Not from your PC to the PS3.

QFT. Not to sound rude to the OP, but i don't know how you can mess it up. The fact that you did it with ur 360 connected made it worst.

If you have a router, then connect the PS3 to that. If you don't, then you will have to unplug the cable from your PC and connect that to the PS3. If you're connecting the PS3 to the PC to share internet, make sure Internet Sharing is enabled on the PC. How do you have the 360 connected to everything? Anyways, the best way is to get a router. You would then connect the cable modem to the router and your PC, PS3, and 360 would all connect to the ports on the back of the router. This is probably the best way to go IMO.

Oh I know your problem, you can't just plug in the internet, you have to plug it, and then go to Setting>Network Settings and go to the internet connection settings. Select wired, and it will take you through the steps to set it up. If it doesn't work after that, you should check your connection, it may not work from pc to ps3, you may need a wired router.
