Try installing HealthCheck and see if everything is working properly (hardware-wise)

So Download the firmware(s) from:
http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/nokia_N900.php
(You need: RX-51_2009SE_10.2010.19-1_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin (that's the global firmware or you could use the other ones if u want... and you need the latest emmc content which is: RX-51_2009SE_10.2010.13-2.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin)
Then you download the flasher-3.5 then you follow the steps on http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_firmware
Make sure you don't put an -R at the end when you flash the firmware.. but you do add -R after you flash the emmc...

Another ironic thing; I've tried reflashing my N900 to the previous firmware and the browser works just fine! This issue seriously puzzles me...
Any ideas?

If anybody else is experiencing similar problems, I think I found a solution. First of all, reflashing is not necessary, but recommended. However, what solved the page loading problem under PR 1.2 was setting N900 to work with a Static IP address. After such fix, my Nokia finally works without problems!

with the original PR1.2 i can't run Kernel power settings or power kernel for maemo5, phone restarts after 15min, and after restart its says : can not load custom kernel settings.
so i flashed it with custom kernel 750Mhz, and that works, i can change it even if i flash original kernel from nokia.

what about stop using overclocks in the first place?
these are the risks realising you are taking when doing that. no warranty anymore etc so I would try to "overclock" the device back to default frequencies and hope that helps.

you should enable the extra-testing, check for updates and it will ask you to upgrade the kernel-power to enhanced power kernel (this version is maemo37), it is much more stable for the PR 1.2 , at least for me

Your right ossipena, what's the point of trying anything and reporting results and maybe looking for guidance...
I can understand giving that "advice" to certain individuals that come across as unruly, needy, and/or uncooperative, but neither poster did so, and it actually assisted with my decision as to whether I'll update or not this weekend.
The phone is what is; IMO its not worth the price of admission if you don't tinker with it (but as I do it's totally worth it!).
Save posts like that for those who deserve it.

I have recently reflashed my N900 to PR 1.2 firmware and everything seemed fine for a while. However, after some time I decided to install kernel power setting which would allow me to overclock my N900. However, I had noticed that my internet connection barely works: pages either load though very slowly or do not load at all.
I have tried to resolve this problem be deinstalling power kernel settings through xterminal, though to no avail - xterminal noted that kernel power settings cannot be uninstalled. As the last resort, I tried reflashing my N900 to PR 1.2 firmware again, but internet connection problem still exists.
I would really appreciate any help, as it renders my N900 close to useless.
