I only have a basic tower for online use, my modem that i use for it is a broadband modem but only has a socket on it for the phone wire.
Can i just buy another modem with a ethernet socket in to run my PS3 on, and just unplug my pc modem from the wall socket and plug my PS3 modem into it.

Yes but it would be much easier buying a wireless router and using that instead, even better if you want to add anything else to the network in future.

how would that connect,
Would i plug my current modem into the router via the modem lead, and then the router connects to my phone line. so it goes between the modem and phone line.
when i turn the router on my ps3 will pick it up , is this right

I'd get one with a modem built in.
Connect the router/modem to phoneline, then cable to pc and use either wireless or cable to ps3.
