I presume you mean your dsl modem/router password? Then its what ever the manufacturer set, or you changed it too.

Or maybe you mean the ISP password, they would of sent it to you....

Beyond that your going to have to be more specific. We can't give you the password, we can only tell you where to look.

type 'sudo su' to become root user.
then type 'passwd' , and make it whatever you want, if you feel the need.
