How to figure out your wifi password?

Question

So today we got a laptop and a wifi router thing. Well, my parents are dumb as i'll get out when it comes to that and have no clue whatsoever with what they're talking about. I was trying to get on my ipod but the wifi connection has a password, evidently they didn't put one and i have no clue what it is or how to obtain it. How to you find it out or how do you reset it? (Its a NetGear one btw)

Call your internet service provider and get them to help you set it up. Take a good look at your router and write down its model number and serial number so you can answer those questions. Find the user's manual and write notes in itas you get set up. There may be a tech support phone number in the manual so you can call NetGear.

Answer 2

Read the manual for the router, and see how to use WDS if it supports it.

Otherwise you need to go to the router admin pages to get the WPA key there, or properly set up a key or password.

You will need to set the router for your provider, and set an admin password on it.

Answer 3

attempt watching the router. some vendors (like uverse and comcast) easily print the password on a tag on the router. quite maintain, huh? seek for a tag that announces WEP key.

Answer 4

It's usually someones phone number or little kid or something random
