Which computer brand and model?
Go to device manager and pick Wireless network adapter(s) from the list, expand on the '+' and see which are listed there.

Does your sister use wireless or is her computer connected using Ethernet cable?
To run wireless from your 6000 once you have set up the software, RIGHT-click the wireless icon in the tray (lower right corner area) and choose 'Show available wireless networks'
What SSID (name) do you see?
DOUBLE-click that (if it is the one in your house) and then click the button 'Connect'
What happens?
Regarding your router question -- there are two ways to connect to a wireless access point:
1) by cable, to configure it (or re-configure)
2) through the air to make use of the connection and the internet
I assume when you are talking about the connection failing you are talking about the latter.
