Despite all that enter your phone number here, your actual phone number. WhatsApp will then try to send message to itself in order to confirm that the phone number is real. Since the computer has no card, no connectivity to your carrier and error will come up, that good, because then you will be offered to confirm the number via a call, do this.

The call will be received on your actual phone, an automated message should tell you a 3 digit code which you will have to enter inside the window and that way your number will be confirmed.
