Wifi password

I set up a netgear account at my brother's house and I guess I wrote the wifi password down wrong. Since I'm not there to auto connect to the wifi, where can I find the password? It's a c6220 using Xfinity service. I just don't see it anywhere in my Xfinity account and I even checked my google passwords. Thanks!

    Factory reset the modem and connect a wired PC to the modem and setup from scratch. Walk thru the setup wizard and be sure to write down all the information for safe keeping.

      Thanks but I was needing to find it within my online account as I am not there to physically do anything.

        It won't be on your online account. You'll need to be at the router to set that setup again.
