The network ID starts with pi-top and ends with 4 random characters.  
You can find the password from the miniscreen.

If you don't see this Wi-Fi network or the guidance on the pi-top Miniscreen, you'll need to install our new OS. [Find it here](https://www.pi-top.com/resources/download-os?hsLang=en).
