    Wifi Password


    I need my wifi password, which I can't remember. My computer is connected to it but I need the password for other devices. THIS post does not work for me, as my Windows does not present a "Show characters" check box as the post claims it is supposed to. HELP!

    :)

  2. wifi password

    I am trying to find my wifi password, but am not able to find it.

    the instructions given to me were:

    Find your Wi-Fi password in Windows

    Great! I can help you find your Wi-Fi password. Follow these steps:

    1. Select Start > Settings > Network and Internet >
      Network and Sharing Center

    1. Under the View your active networks tab, look for the network you’re connected to. Select the blue link next to
      Connections.

    1. Select Wireless Properties in the pop-up window.

    1. When the new pop-up window opens, navigate to the Security tab.

    1. Check the box next to Show characters, and your Wi-Fi password will appear in the Network security key field.

    I got to the network and sharing center, but, there was not
    View your active networks
    tab in the Network and sharing center tab.

    so, how do I find my wifi password?

    Help with changing wifi password?

    No. That will NOT change your WiFi password. The router administration password and WiFi password are two completely different passwords.

    Help with changing wifi password?

    So are you saying that I should enter my "PW" into the field and then I will get to the wifi or wireless settings page?
