password on wireless modem/router
I need to know where I can find the password for the wireless option. currently I have everyting hardwired. I purchased one additional printer but have no more ports at my router. Also I purchased a smart Phone which requires a password to be entered from my moden/Router.
Can someone please tell me where to find the password/ code on the moden?

Not a very detailed description of anything.

That's typical of a wireless client device.

That's a modem only, not a router. If your (unspecified) router is a
Netgear product, then visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your
(actual) model number, and look for Documentation. Get the User Manual.
Read. Look for some topic like "Specify Basic WiFi Settings".
