Ok so the connection seems to work. No extreme congestion on the network connection. Though the variance in round trip times seems a bit large. But should not matter though.
Just to be safe. Are you sure you are connected to WiFi when you tried to use apt-get from the terminal?
Though you could try this as well.
At the moment the IP address that I seem to get for downloads.maemo.nokia.com is 206.132.241.74.
Therefore you could create another repository there with the following data and check if everything works. The idea here is that you will get the same server that I'm using and everything works. You just make a copy of Nokia repository and change the domain name as the IP-address that I'm using. I think Nokia gives you another repository address based on your country to share the load more evenly.
"Nokia backup" or something like that
"https://206.132.241.74/fremantle/apps/"
"./"
" "
Remember to disable the Nokia repository for the time. I think you can use the same for the software update repo as well (change domain to IP and make a backup repo.

All I can suggest is adding an entry to the /etc/hosts file to eliminate the DNS lookup. Try doing (from X Terminal):
That's really not an ideal solution though.
Code:
sudo gainroot echo "92.122.127.25 downloads.maemo.nokia.com" >> /etc/hosts

Keep the Nokia repositories but disable them. The idea is that Nokia might give you an errorneous IP address at the moment. It seems that I'm getting a different IP address now as well as they are doing some modifications on the repositories right now. Moving servers or something like that. Keep the old ones as you should use the domain address, not the IP address if it changes later on. This is just a temporary fix.
In the temporary repositories you'll have to use the same settings, but change the downloads.maemo.nokia.com to 206.132.241.74. Name the repository differently, like Nokia backup or something. The name should not matter.

The Nokia repositories are actually hosted (or at least proxied) by Akamai, so the address you get will be semi-randomly (based on locality and server load) selected from their global server farms.

You said that you use WiFi and haven't got 3G to working? Have you tried with the normal repos on another network?

Did you try Rob1n's solution Chico? Re-enable the normal maemo repository, add a specific IP address to your /etc/hosts file and try and refresh.
However, If somone here can fix this repo problem for me through here then I'd happily transfere them €50 via paypal for their time.
