Router Password Question?

I have a work laptop and two tablets hooked up to my router. They automatically hook up to my router when I turn them on, has the password saved. My wife just received a new work computer and we need to get the password to link it to my network. I used to be able to go on my original laptop and get the password, but that computer is now unavailable. I guess I could reset the password on the router, if I new how, but it would be easier if someone could tell me how to get to the password off from either my IPAD or my HP Tablet.

Update:

Router is CIsco Lynksis E1200

    basically open the browser and go to 192.168.1.1 it will ask for password which u can see from your user manual .... but by default it username:admin password :admin .. go to security and see ur password.

    Your best bet is to reset the router:

    There is usually a reset button on the back, which may require a small object like a safety pin to push. Hold it down for @ 30 sec and lights should blink/reset. At that point just connect to you router and setup a new password( to access the router, connect you pc, and in a browser windows type the address: 192.168.1.1 Default passwords vary, linksys/cisco is admin admin, other common user name passwords are, user, admin, password. Hope this helps
