No one here would know this -- this is your network's password to get through its WEP, WPA, or WPA2 encryption, which is a security feature. If you don't know the password, is there someone in your household that does?

You will need AirPort Utility....the application that you used to originally configure the AirPort Extreme.

Click Manual Setup

Move the focus of your eyes to the uppermost top of the computer's screen....(not the top of the window in the center of the screen).....to locate the AirPort Utility menu bar.

Click the Base Station menu, then click Equivalent Network Password

Your network "password" and also the long Hex "key" will be revealed to you.
