If you've elected to store network passwords in Keychain:
- /Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access.app
- At the top, search for the name of your network
- That should locate the network password entry stored in Keychain
- Double-click that entry and click the "Show password" box
- Enter your Mac's admin password
- Your network password should appear
Log into your router (wired, if you have to) and you can find the password in the settings.
You could also just look at what it is on your Win7 machine. Your home network password will be the same no matter what system you are using

I can't speak for the OP, but many users have someone else set up their router for them, so they wouldn't have a clue how to log in and change the password. It appears the OP found their answer, without needing to access the router.Then how did you set a password in the first place?

It's always good to know how your own equipment works, just in case there's a problem that requires more effort to fix than just staring at the router in frustration then you won't be completely helpless.It appears the OP found their answer, without needing to access the router.

Number 4. Double click the entry?
Which one is my wi fi? I have no airport line, only Skype, Evernote, etc. Other names for which one has my wi fi password? What would it be called? I have about 50 lines. Chromesafestorage was not it. Apple ID auth was not it. What would it be called?
Thanks in advance.
