Local Bandwidth Policy button for Synaptic

Could somebody please write a script that will put a local bandwidth policy in synaptic. The bloody thing keeps searching everywhere except ZA!!!!

When you say "searching" what do you mean?

Is this in reference to you using the za.archive mirror?

I have to manually reconfigure the thing everytime I get my cap, which is problematic. Wish it had some kind of priority, read somewhere, one can actually prioritise the way ubuntu picks up repos so there are no conflicts and it satisfies domain issues, but this should be an update from the Ubuntu mothership, surely?
