well something is drawing electricity through the night. BTW is it a new battery or an old one because it could be dying a slow death and needs a replacement. as far as ether i would not recommend it.
ether will coat your glowplugs and ruin them so they wont heat up. No heat up equals no start. i dont know your starting procedure regarding ether but if you spray too much it can rev the engine too much and cause damage.
also check your fuses to see if any have blown. also see if electricty is making it to the glow plugs. if there is try to replace the glowplugs to see if it works.
