   Yes, they have. Several times.

   What password? The router password to get into its setup? Or the   
   wireless network passkey?   
      
   There is no way to "recover" either. If you forget the router password   
   you will have to reset it to the factory default in order to get into   
   its setup area. You can then reset the wireless network passkey to a   
   new one.

   You're still not specifying whether you want the router password or   
   wireless network passkey. Please be specific.   
      
   New routers come with a default user name and password to get into   
   their setup. It's often something obvious like admin / password. Most   
   routers come with no wireless network security enabled at all. If your   
   wireless network is now passkey protected, someone has changed it.
