    try this:

    first of all download this:
    http://developer.motorola.com/?path=1.2.6.30.777
    Then unzip it, and run it. Then plug your phone in, it should then say "1 device connected" Then it will say new hardware found! When it asks to install drivers click on the one that says do it just click the thing that says you want to do it yourself. Tell it to 'include this folder in the search' give it the folder u unzipped the program to, then click next it will find the drivers, just keep clicking next or yes. When it is done, another driver install window will pop up, keep doing the exact same thing (search in the specified folder) and repeat until the install driver box stops popping up. [it will install a different driver every time]

    Now, you goto, printers and other hardware, in control panel, goto modems and it should show your phone as one, now your problem is with modems and hardware, soooo... copy this post into a new one there, they should be able to help... if not... network connections should show your motorola has a modem... fiddle around with that

    ok, i dont have the chance to try it out yet.
    but, if it does work, will there be another other extra charges to my phone?

    Thanks

    well.... thats the hard part. To use the modem you generally need to have a username and password for to gain access to your ISP, i dunno if it will use your mins from your phone or not...
