Depend what exactly you want to do. To browse a webpage in text mode, try lynx

Wget is a free utility for non-interactive download of files from the Web. It supports HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP protocols, as well as retrieval through HTTP proxies.

Code:
#wget http://page.com/file

or run wget in background:

Code:
#wget -b http://page.com/file
