Yesterday morning, I found my devices logged out of my G36 gateway and my Amazon Echo informed me that the password had been changed. 
 

I unplugged the  gateway and went to work; it remains unplugged. 
 

I don’t know what to do next. Was I hacked?  Is it safe to plug the router back in?

Might have just factory reset itself. Are you able to log back into it? 

You can always reset it and reinstall it

I plugged the gateway back in this morning and everything auto-connected right away. Additionally, I saw a notification that there had been an internet outage that night. 
 

So it looks like your guess was spot-on. Thanks!
