I have this issue as well. Everything is working fine on 3G but when I switch to WiFi I get "Address not Found" in my web browser. None of the application catalogues update either. However, I can still IM through the built-in Skype and I get all the feeds in the Facebook widget that I have on the desktop. This seems to be major issue as many other are reporting this.

If this is reproducible, this is a major bug. Updated the firmware on my N900 early this morning and everything seemingly went fine: "update successful" or whatever it says when it is done.
I have no problems connecting to either T-Mobile GPRS or my LAN's router, but I cannot connect to the outside world on the wifi. ...
Help!
you should be getting something like
route -n
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 wlan0
0.0.0.0 192.168.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 wlan0
and
cat /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 192.168.0.1
..
if the update broke dhcp for *your* router, you can configure dns and route manually
for e.g. set a dns server
echo 4.2.2.1 > /etc/resolv.conf
add a route
route add default gw 192.168.0.1

One should be mentally prepared to flash the device sooner or later, if one plays with software from a development repository.

Because - if you have ANY kind of access to Internet (facebook, skype etc) what means your N900 works fine. But browser configuration doesn't. Usual suspects - DNS resolution (/etc/resolv.conf) or you just have a general network problem and can't access some sites (I hope temporary).

Press small middle button on "top" side of N900 and keep it 4 secs. It is a fast way. Regular PC works in the same design.
If phone works - a short press you a menu with position "switch off!". Of course, unlock first or it will ask you to swipe unlock before a menu.
Tryng to connect to WiFi again - after phone loads it would connect automatically (depending from your setup) or you can press small battery icon on top of screen, then select from menu "Internet connections" and select your WiFi.
But this is good information to all of you. Rebooting after major update (eventhought it reboots once) has at least solved some issues on my N900. Pretty basic guidance for any todays electronical device.

I also had to uninstall OpenSSH, then reinstall it & reboot to be able to SSH into my N900 from my PC.
EDIT: Actually, I now notice that the sshd seems to timeout after a while, and becomes inaccessible from the outside. If I open a terminal on my N900 and "ssh root@localhost", it seems to kick it back into life, and I can connect again from my PC. Very odd behavior.
- actually screwed up a bit.It's painful on 2g getting to these pages!
Thought my run with the N900 was going to easy!
Uninstalled vpnc, fapn and fmms, no change...
It can see the wireless network - but just not connect.....
