Which password? Wifi? Router?
You can get both back to the factory settings by pressing the RESET "button" on the back.
Look at page 101 of the manual:
You don't say which model you mean, but if you reset to the factory defaults then it will get back to the original settings.
See the manual. You can find that here somewhere.

Not sure what this refers to, but after the reset, it will flip back to the default password.
After that you can set a new password.
