Realm turned out to be model number of my router (default, changeable). So, after grabbing the realm, the modified version looks like:

#!/usr/bin/perl

#use warnings;
use strict;
use LWP::UserAgent;

my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new();
$ua->credentials("192.168.0.103","DI-614+","admin","<OMITTED>");

my $response = $ua->get("http://192.168.0.1/st_devic.html");
die "Error while getting ", $response->request->uri,
" -- ", $response->status_line, "\nAborting"
    unless $response->is_success;

print $response->content, "\n";

Had to comment out the warnings because it wouldn't compile: 

Can't locate warnings.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib/perl5/
+site_perl/5.005/i386-freebsd /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005 . /

I'm still getting the 401 error message with the code above. I've tried changing the first argument to be the router instead (192.168.0.1), with no luck. I know this can be done, for I can access the page through a web browser on the local net, and if I can do that, I should be able to have a script do the same, right?
