Root [AT&T] [Rooted] Wifi not connecting after rooting - HTC One AT&T 4.4.2

Everything is working swimmingly except the wifi won't connect. It stays on "obtaining IP address from XXXX..." for a bit and prompts me to enter my password due to "a network error or incorrect password." I have successfully connected 2-3 times by waiting and re-entering my password a dozen times or so, only to be disconnected less than an hour later. Other devices on my network are having no trouble.

This is my first time rooting any android device. I installed superSU from a zip I found, using CWM recovery v6.0.4.6. No intent to flash custom ROM yet, just wanted to give root access to tasker.

Thanks!
 
are you on the stock rom? have you installed a kernel,or made any other mods?

its not typical to have wifi issues after only adding superuser.
 
No custom rom/kernel or anything, just superuser.

My only apps that use root access are tasker, power toggles, and secure settings/busybox.
 
I'm using tasks that require superuser access (one profile disables pattern lock, for example) but tasker is not related to my wifi problem.
 
Update: At a hotel yesterday the wifi worked perfectly, so I'm going to assume the problem is isolated to my home network.

I've reset my router, and other devices are working fine. Now I'm just perplexed!
