OK, assuming that you had unplugged the USB cable from the modem when you did the power off, we need to establish where the connection is falling over.

Let's confirm the setup should be:

Modem <> ethernet <> router WAN (internet) port
Router LAN port <> ethernet <> PC ethernet port
Router <> wireless <> PS3 wireless

Set it up now with a wired connection between router and PC, you can always move to wireless later on.

Power all off and set up wiring as above, power on modem and let settle, power router and let settle, power PC.

Can you now browse the internet form the PC, if so all is OK
If not, can you browse to the router admin page 192.168.1.1? if so the PC is OK, the router isn't speaking to the modem.

Let us know that result.
