The question lists a LinkSys RT31P2 as your broadband router.  Not sure if this is accurate or not.  There's a user guide here is you want to look it over: http://www.helpowl.com/manuals/Linksys/RT31P2/4505

Unfortunately there is no way to uncover the password.  You must contact your ISP and request a reset or a reminder at which point you'll need to re-enter it in your router.

Any user who plugs into this router should just have access.  The router iutself connects to and authenticates to the ISP.  Once thats done all ports should have access.

Since you didn't leave the name of your ISP I can't recommend how to go about getting things reset.
