Is there a way to change the reconnect time or not ?

Not without modifying the source code to cvsup.

What I recommend you do is add the '-1' flag to your cvsup command line
-- so cvsup will try once to pull down the updates and then exit.  Then
you can use a trivial bit of shell scripting to try again if the first
attempt failed, although you should try to cvsup from a different server
if you need to retry.

eg.

   #!/bin/sh

   CVSUP=/usr/local/bin/cvsup
   CVSUPFLAGS=-1 -g -L2 /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile
   CVSUPSERVERS='
       cvsup.xx.freebsd.org
       cvsup.yy.freebsd.org
       cvsup.zz.freebsd.org
       '
   OTHERCMDS=portsdb -Uu && portupgrade

   for $h in $CVSUPSERVERS ; do
        $CVSUP -h $h $CVSUPFLAGS && \
       $OTHERCMDS               && \
       break
   done

Note: untested code intended only as an outline of what you might do --
will need some work before suitable for serious use.

        Cheers,

        Matthew
