What exactly are you wanting to check with this url? And which protocol is this URL using? Is it HTTP?

- Lynx is a good TUI web browser
- Curl is a good command line URL tool that supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, FTPS, SCP, SFTP, TFTP, LDAP, LDAPS, DICT, TELNET, FILE, IMAP, POP3, SMTP and RTSP
- wget is a simple tool that will download a resource using HTTP, HTTPS or FTP

Curl and Wget are available from HP in the Internet Express.

You can also install a GUI web browser like Firefox, but then you'll need an X server on the client side to display it. This is the most cumbersome solution IMO.
