If that is ALL the output you get then your connection isn't functioning.

What is the output of "ifconfig wlan0"? (run as root).

I seem to remember there being a problem with that and that's why I had to change mine. Might have dreamt it though...

seems you are connected to the router at the least.

Can you modify the connection and add the following OpenDNS ip's in place of the DNS Servers instead of having them auto populated.
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220

Then restart the phone, connect to the same network, verify that you have the values showing in the DNS Server in the settings and then try accessing any website.

I don't think you can specify DNS without also specifying IP address. At least last time I did some tests it didn't work. You need either manually specify both IP address and DNSs, or set auto-retrieve for both.

andy_con:If you haven't already made the changes depu suggested then try to ping your router:

Code:
ping 192.168.1.1
ping 192.168.1.254

Is it a BT Homehub 2? There are a lot of problems with the wifi being set in N mode. It might be worth switching to B/G mode only and try again.

It resolved my problem with several devices not connecting to a Homehub 2

........
Nopes, you can independently set the IP address and the DNS settings, it offers a checkbox for both.

@teh If it were running on a N router then it wont even show up on the connections since the n900 is not a N capable device.

All the indications are that there is a DNS retrieval issue happening here.

Note that I said it didn't work, not that it can't be set independently. What happens is that if you set auto-retrieve IP address, then it will also auto-retrieve DNS regardless of what you set it to.
