In your screenshot you have 802.11b/g/n which is OK, no need to change. Do you have any devices other than N900 and are they able to use the wlan without any problems? If so then your router should be configured OK.
As unsane said it's a DNS problem on your N900.
On the N900 go edit your connection. Click "Next" until you get to the last screen then click "Advanced". Under the "IP Addresses" tab select "Auto-retrieve IP address" and select "Auto-retrieve DNS", then "Save" and "Finish".

As i mentioned, this is my first time i've encountered very unfriendly setup of wifi in Saudi Arabia.
In my home country, setting up your wifi configuration is really easy and user-friendly.
I hope somebody can figure it out whats wrong on this setup.
nslookup google.com
cat /etc/resolv.conf

Actually, I meant it was hard on the eyes reading the text on the screens
I can't help suspecting that there's a misunderstanding somewhere though. Setting up wifi on the N900 with DHCP should be really simple. Wifi connections wouldn't be country specific anyway.
If you're using the wireless router to connect to the internet with your laptops through wifi, and its working perfectly, we can discount any problems with the router and/or your connection to your ISP.
Here's a question: When you set up the router for the first time, did you configure new wifi settings on N900 for that connection?
Or did you reuse/edit a connection that was on your phone already?
If that's the case, could you delete the connection on N900 and try making a new one? Please reboot between deleting one and making a new.
If you can connect to your router with wifi, open your browser on N900 and write the following address: 74.125.77.99
This should open google.com
In xterminal on N900 run (type exactly as here):
Code:nslookup google.com
cat /etc/resolv.conf

The N900 uses dnsmasq, do the following and report:
Code:cat /var/run/resolv.conf.wlan0
