Sounds like DNS error.
Try
sudo ping talk.maemo.org
or
sudo ping 74.86.202.247
If first does not, but second one works it is a DNS problem.
From time to time I experience this also, but reconnecting (disconnect and then connect again) solves.
But maybe this may also be caused by your router ....

It looks like its definitely the DNS server that your device is using is sending out garbage data or nothing at all.
I suggest you try using google's DNS servers to verify if that's the case.
First you should check what DNS server entries you have in your device (and paste it here):
Then add Google's DNS server entries (as root):
However if your resolv.conf does show 127.0.0.1 as the very first nameserver then it could be dnsmasq somehow is screwed up. I would try this instead (again as root and you should backup your resolv.conf file):

It seems like its more than just DNS issue. Is your wifi properly configured and that you have other wireless device associated/connected to the wifi without any issues?

iwconfig is part of wireless-tools package and it can be obtained via enabling extras-devel.

I have a connection error with the N900.
As title says,it connects to WIFI as usual but now it can no longer acces any server.
There is nothing that i have to change about wifi connection,the phone has worked perfectly untill
days ago.
So the browser keeps showing me "server not found".
Catalogs in app downloader like "maemo.org" can't be accesed.
In details it says : "Temporary failure resolving 'repository.maemo.org'.
Last thing that was installed tweakflash but i have removed it now.Could that have been the problem.
Thank you for your time and awaiting your answers.
