If you have a computer which is not connected to Internet (or other networks, LAN, Wireless network...) you can call it a standalone computer.
There are only some types of computer that will connect to certain types of wireless networks. Notebooks can connect to wireless networks like laptops do; just make sure your router is picking up signals and that its appearing on your notebook.

First of reboot your computer, second try to update the driver for your wireless adapter. Also make sure that you are allowed to connect to those findable networks. If you can see the networks it does not mean that you can connect to it. Many people use secured wireless networks which protects networks from unauthorized access.
Blocking a computer at the router wont stop that computer from seeing networks. It will only stop you from connecting. If you cant see any networks, download netstumbler.
One can be on the LAN and the other wireless, thru a router.
