Wireless internet for Boost Mobile

| I'm trying to use my cellphone as a wireless modem for my notebook PC.
I've got a Boost Mobile cellphone (Motorola i455) and had them turn on
Wireless Web (now $0.35 per day).
I got a data cable and loaded the Motorola USB drivers onto my notebook PC:

Now I'm stuck. The bozos at Boost Mobile don't know even know what I'm
talking about. "A what, a modem?". I wonder if they graduated high
school. I can't find any knowledgeable people there.
Does anyone know how to make this work? Can it work? Got any good links?
Thanks for your help.

Not all Motorola and Nextel capabilities are available through Boost
Mobile. What you are trying to do is not supported and explains why
the Care Reps do not know what you are talking about. Refer to
boostmobile.com for the list of services that are provided and
supported. There you will find that Wireless Web allows you access to
WAP content outside of Sprint Nextel through the WAP browser on the
phone. It has nothing to do with phone-as-a-modem type applications.
