Can someone convert this python script to perl

There is a python script that I would like converted to a perl script. If someone has the time to convert the script I would appreciate it. You can find the script below:

reboot-mb8600/reboot-mb8600.py at master . j4m3z0r/reboot-mb8600 . GitHub

Code:
#!/usr/bin/python

'''
A hacky script to reboot the Motorola MB8600 modem.
'''

import urllib, urllib2, sys
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

MODEM_IP = '192.168.100.1'
USERNAME = 'admin'
PASSWORD = 'motorola'
ENCODED_PASSWORD = 'bW90b3JvbGE' # get from login URL from web UI.

def login(modem) :
    '''
    The modem seems to just be in a global "logged in" state once the password
    is sent -- no cookies are set.
    '''
    # the password is encoded with some simple function in JS. It is a
    # symmetric encoding of some form, so the encoding is always the same. This
    # is the encoding of the default password 'motorola'. Note that the ordering
    # of the arguments matters, and so does the trailing '=&' that we tack on
    # to the end of the URL.
    args = [
        ('loginUsername', USERNAME),
        ('loginPassword', ENCODED_PASSWORD)
    ]
    encodedArgs = urllib.urlencode(args)
    url = 'http://%(modem)s/login_auth.html?%(encodedArgs)s=&' % locals()

    # This will respond with a 200 return code with a HTML body claiming that
    # there was a 400 error if login was successful, or an actual 400 error if
    # the login was not successful.
    try :
        urllib2.urlopen(url).read()
    except urllib2.HTTPError, e :
        print >> sys.stderr, "400 error returned from modem. Check the password"
        raise e

def getSession(modem) :
    # the session key is included as a hidden field on the form with the reboot
    # button. We use BeautifulSoup to extract it.
    req = urllib2.Request('http://%(modem)s/MotoSecurity.html' % locals())
    html = urllib2.urlopen(req).read()
    soup = BeautifulSoup(html, "html.parser")
    sessionField = soup.find(attrs={'name' : 'sessionKey'})
    return str(sessionField.attrs['value'])

def reboot(modem, session) :
    # reconstruct the reboot request and send it here to start the reboot.
    argDict = [
        ('MotoUsername', USERNAME),
        ('MotoCurPassword', PASSWORD),
        ('MotoNewUsername', USERNAME),
        ('MotoNewPassword', PASSWORD),
        ('MotoRepPassword', PASSWORD),
        ('MotoSecurityAction', '1'),
        ('sessionKey', session)
    ]
    url = 'http://%(modem)s/goform/MotoSecurity' % locals()
    req = urllib2.Request(url, urllib.urlencode(argDict))
    urllib2.urlopen(req).read()

    # the response from the reboot request instructs us to visit this page, so
    # we do a fetch against it here. Otherwise the modem seems to not reboot.
    urllib2.urlopen('http://%(modem)s/rebootinfo.html' % locals()).read()

def main() :
    login(MODEM_IP)
    session = getSession(MODEM_IP)
    reboot(MODEM_IP, session)

if __name__ == '__main__' :
    main()

REBOOT(8)						      System Manager's Manual							 REBOOT(8)

NAME
reboot - reboot the system immediately SYNOPSIS
reboot [-f] DESCRIPTION
Reboot can be used to reboot the system after installing a new kernel. It does not inform the users, but does log it's actions in /usr/adm/wtmp and /usr/adm/authlog. The system is then rebooted with the reboot(2) systemcall. If the -f flag is not given then all processes are sent terminate signals to give them a chance to die peacefully before the reboot() call. If the wtmp file exists, reboot logs itself as if it were a shutdown. This is done to prevent last(1) from talking about system-crashes. Reboot is registered as is in the authlog file. Reboot can only be executed by the super-user. Any other caller will be refused, either by reboot(8) or by reboot(2). SEE ALSO
reboot(2), shutdown(8), halt(8), boot(8). BUGS
The error message's given by reboot are not always useful. There are several routines that can fail, but which are not fatal for the pro- gram. AUTHOR
