Would be an option, since freefall is very well connected.
But that also requires me to be online that also costs money.

Another option comes to my mind.
If sources are not available we also look into /cdrom/ports/distfiles....
So I could move my sources to /cdrom/distfiles, then they would be
fetched from there and moved to /usr/ports/distfiles.
