ftp updates.oracle.com allowed to download patches before but now it says the following.

Is there a way to download patches now using command prompt. I couldn't see category for metalink in forums hence posted here.

Enter the following command where username and password are your My Oracle Support login and password and filename is the patch file name that you copied from the Properties window::
wget http-user=username http-password=password no-check-certificate output-document=filename "http://updates.oracle.com/Orion/Download/download_patch/<filename>"
For example, to download patch 7154429 for Linux where the patch file name is p7154429_10204_Linux-x86.zip, enter:
wget http-user=[email protected] http-password=password no-check-certificate  output-document=p7154429_10204_Linux-x86.zip "http://updates.oracle.com/Orion/Download/download_patch/p7154429_10204_Linux-x86.zip"
