I bought a new computer. 2 others, a laptop and iPad are working fine but I do not have the password to add the new device

What you need is the WiFi password. If you have the admin password, log into the router and look at the page where you set up the WiFi encryption. Some routers can show the password in clear text. If it is not shown, change the password there and reconnect all devices with the new password. This is easier than doing a full reset.
