You could use the following in your make.conf to use wget (which is capable of limiting bandwith) in your make.conf: FETCH_CMD=/usr/local/bin/wget --limit-rate=20k # Limits to 20k DISABLE_SIZE=YES DISABLE_SIZE is mandatory for wget, because it would get "-S <size of the file to fetch>" otherwise, which is only supported by fetch.
