The 915000 number is used for WAP dialup, therefore your PC will not be able to use it.
To use your PC you will need to dial up using a standard PC ISP with an 0845 number with the phone configured as a modem.
This will come out of your free minutes and not your free internet quota.
Hope this is of help,

No, don't think you can.
