Dialup network password issue

macos 10.4 keeps changing the password set for the dialup internet connection for some reason, any way to stop this?
 
What do you mean "changing" it?

If you're looking at the number of "dots" that represent the password, you will NOT see as many dots as you have letters/numbers in your password. That would be silly: it would be telling whomever's viewing the screen exactly how many letters/numbers are in your password. Mac OS X will (almost) always show eight dots, no matter how long your password really is.
 
...but it authenticates correctly when you re-input the password?

I would suggest removing the Internet Connect keychain entry for that specific connection with the program "Keychain Access". Then, re-input the correct password into Internet Connect for that dial-up account and see if it "sticks."
