To download multiple files, a simple alternative to the script is to use wget as follows:

wget --user=myusername --password=mypassword -i url_list.txt

where myusername is your Earthdata username, mypassword is your Earthdata password, and url_list.txt is a text file with one granule download link per line.

For convenience, wget can pull urls directly out of Earthdata Search's download access script, so the following will also work:

wget --user=myusername --password=mypassword -i download.sh

To download a single file, you can use wget as follows:

wget --user=myusername --password=mypassword url

where  url is link for the file you want to download.

Another alternative is to use DownloadThemAll!, an add-in for the Firefox browser.  (TIP: By adding .txt to the end of the download script, you can use DownloadThemAll!'s "import from file" feature to download the links it contains.). DownloadThemAll! is not compatible with Firefox Quantum, so be sure to check your version of Firefox to verify compatibility.

For Chrome users, there An alternative to DownloadThemAll! is "Chrono Download Manager," an extension for the Google Chrome browser that is similar to has many of the features of DownThemAll! for Firefox.
