Do a search using your make and model number and see if they post the generic pass word for it on the manufacturers web site.

My router has a label on it with the wifi network name and password on it. The past 4 routers that AT&T has replaced have had labels on them with the info as well. Their routers are made by Motorola. Or call the tech support of your ISP.

Look for a sticker on it. Mine was on the side.
If you changed your admin login you can factory reset the router once you find the default password so you can put your settings back.

ATT has a sticker, Comcast use Admin
from the net: How do I find out what my router password is? Check your router's default password, usually printed on a sticker on the router. In Windows, head to Network and Sharing Center, click on your Wi-Fi network, and head to Wireless Properties > Security to see your Network Security Key. On a Mac, open Keychain Access and search for your Wi-Fi network name.
