WnR1000 I forgot my password and I need to connect to new iPhone

I don't remember my password.  When I use default one, it just asks for PW again.  I want to put my new iPhone on Wifi.  How can I retrieve my password?   Thanks!

    I assume that you mean wifi password rather than the one needed to get in to configure the WnR1000.

     

    When faced with those "forgot my password" issues, the only solution is usually to reset the thing back to the factory defaults.

     

    There will be instructions on how to do that in the manual.
