   Search for your make and model of router on Google. Someone will have   
   posted the default passwords and an operating manual for that router   
   somewhere.   
      
   Connect to it using an ethernet cable, and open the router home page,   
   then use the password you found on the web to log on to the settings   
   page of the router. You will then be able to set the wifi password to   
   whatever you wish.   
      
   If you can not or do not wish to follow this procedure, then contact   
   your local computer specialist and ask them to do it for you. I have   
   already told you to do this in response to your off-group request for   
   assistance, and others here have told you how to do it on-group.   
      
   Failing that, it's a pound a mile travelling expenses from where I live   
   and £25.00 per hour for me to visit your premises and solve the problem   
     for you.
