Hmm. As a side note I´m getting bad certificate error with Firefox 3.6.10 (win 7 64-bit). Is this bug report stuff or just normal?

No idea, but I have had similar repository problems, but intermittent. I was able to update four apps today.

Hi,
I'm having the following error when trying to search for updated applications:
https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com/fr...mr0/./Packages
Could not resolve host downloads.maemo.nokia.com (Could not contact DNS servers)
(and the same for the other two nokia repositories)
This only happens when I have my N900 connected to my home WiFi (Orange ADSL with Livebox 2 router). On different WiFis the app manager correctly searchs for updated software. However, on my home WiFi I have full internet access (using a PC and also using the N900) and I can browse the web through MicroB. Even I can connect to https://downloads.maemo.nokia.com and the name is correctly resolved.
I have tried changing the DNS in the N900 WiFi connections from auto to fixed DNS, but the app manager still shows the same message. I have tried using fixed DNS in the router, but with no success.
Do you have any idea about the problem?
Best regards.

@Rob1n:
Please, could you tell me at which server is the downloads.maemo.nokia.com redirecting to? I'd like to test if I can directly ping to it. I have no problem pingin downloads.maemo.nokia.com. It is resolved as 90.84.49.75 in my N900 console window. Any idea?
Thank you.

In most cases, changing the DNS in either the router or the N900 has fixed this for others with similar issues. If you use the Power Search function on the right, you might be able to find some alternative solutions in some of the previous threads though.
