I had a similar issue where the phone would show it was still connected to the Wifi but all communication had failed, switching off and then back on Wifi in the phone (using Wifi switcher) would fix it, but I don't think it has happened since I re-flashed, so maybe a reflash would fix it.
Ping's result is below.

C:\Users\Manoj>ping 192.168.1.3

Ping statistics for 192.168.1.3:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),

I tried to ssh,ftp and even winscp. But everything fails. Anything wrong with maemo? I don't want a reflash again
