Root Rooted Droid Wifi Problem

Lurker
I recently got an OG Droid, and decided to root it.
I rooted it to the Bugless Beast gpa19, and love it.
The only problem is that, starting today, I haven't been able to connect to my home wifi. I've tried power cycling my router/modem, and still nothing. I also haven't had the chance to test it anywhere else. All I know is my friend's stock Droid 2 connects fine, and my old Droid Eris connects as well.
The wifi turns on, and finds my home network, connects, and "attempts" to obtain an IP, but fails, and disconnects.

I'm sort of a noob when it comes to command prompts/programming lingo, but am willing to work my way through instructions.
Any and all help is appreciated.
 
By the way, the wifi connectivity stopped working when I was trying to change the lock/unlock system files in the droid, and may have messed something up there, if that helps at all.
 
Rebooting your router _probably_ won't fix it. Try rebooting your phone. Failing that, make a nandroid backup of your phone and then perform a factory data reset, then restore your backup. If all that fails, do the factory data reset and reinstall the GPA.

good luck
