Throw your router out and buy a new one. But seriously you didn't give us anything to go on. What router? DHCP enabled? etc

Did you remove the AP and tried to add it again? Or did you play around with the Advanced settings of the AP?

WEP? If so https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9057 comes to my mind. And there is also https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9622 (don't know if WEP or WPA in your case).

I had a similar issue three weeks ago. I went into the router setting (LinkSys WRT300N) screen and :
  • disabled the MAC filter on router
  • disabled the security settings.
  • deleted the wireless connection from the N900.
  • searched for wireless with N900
  • added the network and reconnected
  • enabled security on router
  • added the N900's MAC address to the filter.
  • searched for wireless on the N900
  • input pre-shared key on N900

It works fine now for the last three weeks, as it did for the four months before this cropped up.

I use the MAC filter to permit addresses, any address not input into the filter is unable to connect.
