Maybe you'll be visiting the parents during spring break and need to get onto their wireless network. Or it could be your grandparents need a little tech support with their internet connection from afar. In either case, you'll need their wi-fi network password. Unfortunately, for a lot of people, the axiom of "out of sight, out of mind" applies all too well with network passwords. So here's a simple tip to give them a cheat sheet...

All you need is some masking tape and a pen. That's it! The next time you're visiting mom and dad, write down their network password and stick it directly onto their wireless router or cable modem (it's also a great opportunity to strengthen their network password to something beyond "1234" or "Guest").
So the next time you stay for a week, you won't even need to ask. And be sure to show them what you've done, so they also know the password is there for them to reference just in case they need to troubleshoot their connection over the phone with their ISP.

Our network name and password are titles of books in our house. When guests come over, we try to remember to put the books on the coffee table when they ask. No crawling under furniture to get to the password.
Fair warning: If I visit your home and you don't remember your wifi password, I will factory reset it, pick my own password, and I may or may not tell you what it is. :)

I just have my macbook and phone remember the password that I got off the back of the modem. I don't have to remember it since my devices do it.
