Unless you simply failed to use a wifi password, or maybe it was too easy to crack, then perhaps you've become a victim of the KRACK vulnerability.

All passwords should at least be 14 chars in length, and contain letters (both cases), numbers, and special characters. If you visit http://grc.com/pass, it will help generate good passwords for you.

Visit your router manufacturer's website to get the most recent firmware update and apply it (I'm assuming your current firmware is old and pre-dates the KRACK vulnerability, and hopefully the most recent firmware has fixed it). Upon reboot, disable the wireless again, and apply a strong password for GUI access. Then configure and enable the wifi again using a strong password.

IOW, the key to doing this correctly is keeping the router off wireless until you get that router updated and secured.
