Default Broadband Connection Password Failure

I'm using MS Vista Ultimate and Broadband Connection (ADSL).

I start my PC and connect to Internet with out any problems, but sometimes
connection fails (the globe in system tray disappears) - it's not so
important.

When I try to reconnect it says, that user name or password incorrect!

I go to ToolsInternet OptionsConnectionsSettings button and see
something strange: my password became longer (16 instead of 8 characters)!

I'm entering correct passwordpress OKpress Settings button again (to
ensure) and see the same 16-characted password!!! [ofcourse it don't want to
connect]

What's wrong? It doesn't want to listen me!

The number of asterisks has nothing to do with the true number of
characters in your password. This is a security feature since XP.
Contact your ISP to change your password or to discuss what is happening.
