Via Router
If you do not have a Windows or Mac computer with Wi-Fi has passwords, or you are trying to access the password through your phone or tablet, then you can find the password saved on the router. This will work only when you are connected to the router’s network.
Remember that you can also connect the router through an Ethernet cable. Tablet and mobile phone until Wi-Fi. If you are not connected to the network, then you cannot know the password.
These steps may be slightly different for each router. If you tamper with the wrong settings, the entire network will be stalled. So you move forward at your risk.
1. First, open the browser and go to the local address of the router. In general, it is http://192.168.1.1, although the URL also depends on the brand of the router, so manually check or look at the official website to know the correct address.
2. Enter the username and password. And this will also be different for different companies. You can also change the password and do so. However, as a default, the router given by MTNL and Airtel contains the username and password admin. At the same time, other routers have a default password. If this combination does not work, then you have to contact your router’s manufacturer or internet service provider.
3. First click on the Internet, then on the wireless. In some routers, the option of wireless is available only on the main screen. In this section, you will be able to see security types WEP, WPA,and Key. In some routers, all these options are inside the security tab.
The Wi-Fi network password is available in the box next to the Key Field. And on many routers this plane is available in the tendon, so you have to note it.
If any measure does not work, you may have to reset the router. Do not do this until you can connect any device to the network. Resetting the router is the last solution, because after this, you have to re-set up the entire network to restore the Internet connection. If you do not know about it, then we suggest that you contact your internet service provider.
We cannot give you any accurate guide for this, because it is different depending on the manufacturer of the router. Before doing this, you should check the user manual of your router. Every router has a reset switch. Some routers have a very small button, while in some, this button is hidden in a small hole, which can be pressed with paper clips. To reset the router, this switch has to be pressed for some time. Flashing lights on the router indicate that it has been reset.
Once this happens, you wait for the router to start again and then setup the network. Which step to follow this process will depend on your internet service provider, so we suggested you to contact the service provider to reset the router.
You can reck the Wi-Fi password saved in this way. If you also know another way, then tell us through the comment box made below.
