Visual studio 2015 components downloading problem

AI Thread Summary
Visual Studio 15 requires additional components that can be large in size, making downloads challenging for users with slow internet connections, such as 20 kb/s. This speed can lead to frequent interruptions and long download times, with some files reaching multiple gigabytes. Users suggest that switching from a WiFi connection to a wired Ethernet connection may improve download stability and speed. However, in regions like Iran, slow internet speeds are common, making it difficult to download large files efficiently. Alternatives for offline installation methods are sought to bypass these connectivity issues.

Hi
I downloaded visual studio 15 and as i saw some of its components need to be installed
I tried to install them but it seems that its not compatible with my internet download (20kb/s download breaks after few minutes)
So is there any way i can download them from microsoft and install them offline ?

20 kb/s seems very slow, especially since these files can be multiple gigabytes. One of the VS 2013 files was nearly 3 GB in size.

How is your computer connected to the internet? If by WiFi, I have noticed that my wireless router sometimes corrupts larger files during downloads. What works for me is to connect an ethernet cable from the router to the ethernet port in my computer. Having a hard wire connection to the router eliminates the files being corrupted, and really speeds up the downloads.

This is Iran ... having a speed around 20kb/s is very common
 
So the 3 GB file that Mark44 mentioned would probably take you about 36 hours to download.

I have an 80 kB/s connection at home, and it takes me about 3 hours to download 1 GB. (Yes, that's very slow for the USA. I haven't bothered to upgrade yet because I can download big stuff at work. :oldwink:)
 
Dear Peeps I have posted a few questions about programing on this sectio of the PF forum. I want to ask you veterans how you folks learn program in assembly and about computer architecture for the x86 family. In addition to finish learning C, I am also reading the book From bits to Gates to C and Beyond. In the book, it uses the mini LC3 assembly language. I also have books on assembly programming and computer architecture. The few famous ones i have are Computer Organization and...
I have a quick questions. I am going through a book on C programming on my own. Afterwards, I plan to go through something call data structures and algorithms on my own also in C. I also need to learn C++, Matlab and for personal interest Haskell. For the two topic of data structures and algorithms, I understand there are standard ones across all programming languages. After learning it through C, what would be the biggest issue when trying to implement the same data...
