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.

HTH,
