you replied to yourself.. so just double checking, you do have a Mac computer?


If so, I'm assuming the Mac connects to the same WiFi network?


If yes to those two questions.. on your Mac, open Keychain Access.

In the upper right search field, type your network name. If results are found, double click on a result that matches your network name. Info box should pop up, then click show password, it'll prompt for your computer password and then it'll display it for you

That would be part of your network, and would be included in information about your router. There is no place on the device to find that password, you would have needed to write that down when you created your wi-fi network. Do you have any other Apple devices? Newer devices have the ability to share the wi-fi network with other Apple devices when nearby and connected to the same network.
