I'm trying to fetch portsnap but can't because probably of network problem.

Whenever I try to run command
# portsnap fetch extract

the process stall and never reach 20%. It is sad. :(

The computer on wich I try to run this command is on my home LAN
that has a gateway/router.

What can I do to solve this problem?
You need to diagnose why your fetch is bombing out.  Start by checking
over your own equipment and try to eliminate that as a source of
problems.  Make sure all your cabling is in good condition and that all
network plugs are correctly seated.  Check for packet errors:

    # netstat -i
Well, maybe this does not cause the solution but:

I change in /etc/portsnap.conf the server from:
SERVERNAME=portsnap.FreeBSD.org

to a portsnap mirror:

SERVERNAME=portsnap1.FreeBSD.org

and after that I can fetch ports.
