Is it that the modem is not 'installed'?

Also, the same modem works without any username and password on another
windows machine after connecting it on the LAN port.
Its a cable modem. When I connect a Windows machine to it, I connect it on
the LAN port (Network cable). Once the modem is on, I need no
configuration, usernames, passwords, etc. I can access the net.

When I connect it to my Debian box, I need to connect it to USB (as my
Debian box does not have LAN port - Ethernet cable), I am not able to
access the net.

You may be able to use it by getting a USB LAN port, and then plugging the cable modem into *that*. Of course, you will want to get a USB LAN adapter that follows standards and has Linux drivers.
