Model: WRT54G2 | SKU: 8741365
My sister have router by Linksys - Ultra RangePlus Wireless-N Broadband Router with 4-Port Switch Model: WRT160N | SKU: 8639967

Code? The firmware or the setup configuration? In either case, no.

If she has her "wireless" Linksys set up correctly you will need her WEP or WPA key (depending on which one she is using) to join her "network". If she doesn't have it set up correctly, like most people, you'll simply need to check for available wireless networks and hers will be the one with the most signal strength since you're right there. Click connect and it'll send you an IP and you'll see "connected" and network name on your wireless icon.
Evil is obvious only in retrospect.

You aren't kidding. I have any number of spots my laptop will connect to around my route. I can even see sharing folders on their boxes at some spots :roll: . Oh well, it's not my credit card numbers.
