The usual cause of this is that Maven can't access the central
repository at http://repo1.maven.org/maven2.  Are you behind a
firewall or proxy that may be preventing access?

Also, if it fails once, it will not check again until the next day.
(The default update policy is daily.)  Try adding -U to your command
line to force updates.

If that doesn't help, we'll need more information about your environment.
