    wifi password or login to the router password? 

    if youi've lost the wifi password, you can always hardwire into the router (skipping needing the wifi password) and view change it under the settings. 

    If you've lost the password to log into the router and don't know or didn't setup the password recovery feature, then you'd need to factory reset to get back to defaults.
