If I forgot my password to my wifi network, how do I retrieve it using my iPhone?

try forgot my password from their you ll have to seek assistance from provider or electronic shop

Please note that log-in password and wifi password is not the same, to be precise. However, if you are using the default Windows interface to connect to wifi networks, as opposed to a third party software (i.e. one that came with your wifi card), the password can be recovered. The procedure can varies a little bit depending on which OS you are using. Assuming you are running Windows 7:
- right click the network connection icon in the system tray and choose the second (and last) option;
- when the Network and sharing center window opens, in the left hand pane, choose "Manage wireless networks";
- a new window pops up, where you will find a list of saved wireless networks. Right click the one for which you want to recover the password, choose Properties;
- click the "Security" tab, tick the option to show the password, and you can read the password in clear text.

If you check your own wifi password than go to wifi setting and click Show characters check box but if you are using router and forgot your wifi router than try to reset your router wifi password. If you need any technical guidance than follow Mac Technical Support .

Monitor your signal.
As you use your iPhone, especially if you're moving around, you should take a look at the signal strength of the connection.
The strength is indicated by a small, black broadcast symbol that stacks arches, or rounded bars, on top of one another.
The more bars there are the better the signal.

The iPhone is equipped to automatically search for available networks and connect you to one.
If you do not want the phone to search for networks, select the "WiFi" option on the phone's menu.
Then select either the on or off option of the "Ask To Join Networks."
Turning this option off requires that you find networks manually.

Troubleshoot Wi-Fi Connection Problems on an iPhone
If you experience Wi-Fi connectivity issues on your iPhone, you may need to reset the Wi-Fi connection.
Your connectivity issues could be caused by the wrong password if you are having trouble logging into the Wi-Fi network or from a problem in your iPhone's settings.
By resetting the Wi-Fi connection, you are clearing out the previous settings created when you first connected to the network.

Tap the Settings icon on the iPhone's home screen, and tap the Wi-Fi tab.
Swipe the switch on the Wi-Fi tab to ensure Wi-Fi is enabled on your iPhone.
Tap the blue arrow button on the network tab you are connected to in the network list, and tap "Forget this Network."
Tap the "Forget Network" button that appears on the pop-up menu to confirm the action.

Tap the Wi-Fi Networks tab in the upper-left corner to return to the previous screen, and tap the network's tab in the network list to re-join it.
Press the Home button on the iPhone, and tap the Safari icon on the home screen to test the Wi-Fi connection.
Tap the blue arrow icon on the network's tab if the connectivity problem persists, and tap the "Renew Lease" button at the bottom of the network's window.
Tap the "Renew Lease" button on the pop-up box to confirm the action.
Tap the Home button on the iPhone, and tap the Safari icon on the home screen to test the network connection.

The wifi password is the password to the wifi network. Not the phone.

First of all what the Apple iPhone was made for in the first place was not for you network provider to be tracking you where ever you go, it's for your own use alone. Network providers just gives you access to operate the phone by providing network for your access your Apple iPhone.

Thanks for using fixya.....

You need to do a factory reset of your wireless router. This should clear the password in it. There is no password for your 5-port switch.

if you need to recover a used wifi key, its not possible from within windows as they are all encrypted when added, you need to search for a wifi key recovery software, there are some that recover and back up keys used on the machine, so i would start there :)
