There are 2 methods:

1. In the back of the router there should be a sequence of numbers which is your passcode

2.Find a laptop that is able to connect to the wifi network. Click on the wifi signal bar on the tray icon area of the Taskbar. Right click on the SSID of the wifi network, select Properties > Security. You'll see the saved password there.
