For ports, yes, you will to do 'make fetch' or 'make fetch-recursive'
for third-party software you want to install.

No. Hashes are generated locally and compared against information in
the distinfo file. If there is a mismatch, that is a bug.

It is painful. My suggestion is to identify everything you absolutely
need, and do from a separate machine with internet access:
# sh -c 'for i in `make -C /usr/ports/category/port all-depends-list`; \
do make -C $i fetch-recursive; \
done
Note that if anything is missing, build will fail at compile time on the
internet-less machine.
