have you tried to connect to your accesspoint with another device?
Is your wlan0 device still available on N900? check it in Terminal.. you need rootsh installed, then type
root
ifconfig -a

Never forget to make a backup on your N900 before
installing a new software.
There are always different ways to get software onto your
N900:
connect N900 via USB cable to your desktop or laptop machine and copy the file to the partition that you like
or
set up bluetooth and transfer the file via bluetooth.
If you used USB cable do a disconnect of the hardware in the
tray if using Windows or unmount the device if using Linux,
then unplug the USB cable.
If you used bluetooth switch off bluetooth on the N900.
Then use the file manager and go to the place where you saved the software, selecting the *.deb should try to install it.

my N900 was working properly till last night...however, today its not...there's some problem in wifi...it is not detecting any wireless connection as well as GPRS...i've checked my wireless router and its fine...so the problem must be with my n900...
i tried everything i could...but it didn't work out for me...has anyone faced such problem? if yes please suggest me to make my device fine again....I'll be grateful to u......
