ok.. Im presuming that somebody has seriously messed up with your setup.Thats why i always say change the default password of your router.Since it suddenly asks for a password(WEP key).. it means that somebody has logged into your router and created a WEP key which you dont know so that you cant access it.Most probably you would have left your network open without any password and everybody in your locality would be using it.. never leave your network open to other..always keep a WEP key.and what that guy must have done is also changed your router password so you cant login to the router.
the only way out is resetting your modem.just take a matchstick and insert it into the hole provided in the modem for resetting.keep it there for like 20 seconds while the modem is on.then you need to configure your modem all over again ..

only way to crack a modem password is using brute force which is time consuming.easiest way is to reset.

so you resetted the modem and configured ppoe again.. but the modem pasword still is set to the default one which is admin, so whoever messed up your router last time may do it again.. make sure you change the default password of your modem/router also add a WEP Key to its wireless settings
