NOOOOOOO. That's one of the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Either connect to a wi-fi network or connect an ethernet cable from your modem to the PS3

You'd essentially be trying to turn the laptop into a router. Search for "turn your laptop into router" on youtube, there's some videos showing how to do it, might work with your wifi usb hub connection.
