You're typically safe when it comes to retrieving status pages like that without loading the main page (you might end up having to go through the authentication if the modem requires a login). Usually the page with the data is generated dynamically in response to the request (this is also what you'd likely do if you wanted to load status pages from Espruino, for example).
