If he used a hub, he would need to lease another IP address for his PS3, or only use one at a time because a hub doesn’t have any IP addressing abilities.

Just reset the router back to default, there is probably a setting in there that is blocking a certain port that eBay loads on the HTTP protocol. If all else fails call Linksys 1-800-326-7114
