I would have thought in this regard that if for instance you send a 
request to the BP mirror for an ISO that it would send the data back to 
the address requesting it as it wouldnt even be aware of an alternate 
paths, unless of course you are spoofing your headers for a different 
send/receive address, and in that case I dont think BP would allow you 
to download it anyways.

Also if you are using a stateful firewall and its tagging the requests 
that go out, it wont allow them back in on a different interface (ie optus)
