Hello,


If you're connected to the router, then you can find the password in the routers admin page.


Click on the Apple logo and then system preferences. Go to network under internet and network. In the show select airport, select the tab TCP/IP, in the configure select using DHCP, now you will find the IP address of your router. It will be something like. 192.168.1.1

Using safari or a web browser, type that IP address in. That will load up the admin screen. If you haven't used it before then a default password I'd 1234 or password maybe required. Once your in the routers admin page you can find the wifi password.


Best of luck
