You cannot use the hacked BSNL modem's id & passwd (due to port binding ,it worked earlier & i have used it), but you can hack the pc connected with it by changing the DNS settings within the Modem to redirect the webpage requests to malware sites (very simple way to install backdoors & bots ).
You can also hack MTNL/BSNL servers easily since they have no firewalls too.

Today just before 30 minutes, I found that my broadband usage (I am using 500c) crossed 2.5 gb. Surprisingly, in detail usage list, I found from yesterday 9.30 to 12.00 pm and today from 10. am to 4.pm someone use my 2.3 gb . One of my friend told that someone hacked my modem. Who can I handle the situation , anyone can help me please. The next 2 days are holidays. What to do, I do not understand other than to change my password .

In this regard you are help less no one can help you out, bsnl wont entertain your complaint, just enquir whether port binding has been done or not if done then no one can hack.

Change all the passwords of your modem for "admin" and "support".

Do you have a wifi modem ?

Make a complaint to the Senior Divisional Engineer (SDE). Tell him to check whether your usage details is bounded to your Mac ID. For every modem, there is separate Mac ID. If the user had tried to hack your line and used his modem, his mac ID will be recorded and it is easy to prove.

But if you are using an insecure wifi modem and somebody hacked, please enable encryption to your connection. Otherwise no one can help you.

1.What is the modem/router you are using ?
2.Is it on wifi ?
3.Do you use a security key ?

4.Or you in a flat complex where your Telephone can be tapped ?
5.Do you use a scheduled downloader ?

6. Check your usage at BSNL Portal
and post screenshot as jpg annexure.

Para two;
When ever you are connected and then again reconnect
to Internet your Dynamic IP changes.
Current IP Check
To access your modem this Ip must be known.
Assuming I can access your modem,
nothing much can be done !
Worst case scenerio
change your password ( in WAN page PPP/PPPoE setting)
if you do not use a Dialer !
Not possible to access the Internet !
with your userID and password on a different Phone .
