How do I find and download the new distfiles for a port when I have no internet access from the FreeBSD installation?

Port in question is net/realtek-re-kmod .



How do I find the files when I can use NetBSD but not FreeBSD?

If this will build and work, then I will possibly have internet connectivity on FreeBSD-current/14.

1. Download distfiles on NetBSD machine.
2. Insert USB memory into NetBSD machine.
3. Copy distfiles to USB memory.
4. Remove USB memory from NetBSD machine and insert it FreeBSD one.
5. Copy distfiles to /usr/ports/distfiles.

Just for added convenience. The link to the source is:
