These are the steps to SAP Marketplace to download the installation files from service.sap.com. I have put these steps together in my blog as this might help somebody.

First point to service.sap.com and click on SAP Support Portal link

On the next screen, you can click on individual links to start the download. It is a good idea to get Download Manager and you can initiate multiple download at the same time.
