How can I schedule downloads on my mac to wait to run until 3:00 AM

I have a monthly data cap on my internet usage, except between the hours of 3 and 6 am.

I would like to click download on a large video file, but then set the download somehow to pause until 3:00 AM and then start automatically then without me having to still be awake to push go.

There were some plug ins ("download scheduler", i think) that never worked especially well, but even they won't run on the latest version of firefox.

Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web Link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.
