Do you have two Dial-In line?
1) You => Internet => Debian-Server
2) You => your friends apt-proxy
???
If it goes the same connection, then it will no benefit.
I have tried around 40 Debian Mirrors and no one give me
less then 8 MBit which is my ADSL in France.
You can have only an avantage, if YOU run the apt-proxy for
your own network and you install more then one machine.
On the other hand you can mirror a Debian site (which I do
because I am installing/upgrading 5-20 Machines per week)
