For is acceptable, but I would use to , just as I would with key . Only I have the key to the chest. Only I know the password to the router.

The way I understand it, when a password grants access to something, then it's said to be the password for it.
Consider these examples:
The password of one of the users was hacked last week.
It's a good practice to change the password for your account on a timely basis.
