I tried to install the latest VS 2017 Update yesterday and since then I cannot get it to finish this.
This worked pretty fine in the last months and stopped working yesterday.
I already tried to do the following:
%PROGRAMFILESx86%\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017
%PROGRAMDATA%\Microsoft\Visual Studio
I have a 50 MBit/s download rate and all other apps are working just fine. If I look into the logs I can see failed downloads when I abort the instalation. When I pick one of the URLs there and just download the vsix directly via the browser it just works.
Is there any caching or network setting that might be useful in this case?
UPDATE I have tried 2 downloads (WLAN) from MS servers right now:
Has MS issues on certain download servers maybe and what to do or whom to tell in those cases?

Go to Windows Update to check if there are any pending Windows Updates, check for updates to apply the latest Windows updates, ensure that all critical and recommended Windows Updates are installed and completed, then reboot system. 6.
You might have extensions installed that slow Visual Studio down. For help on managing extensions to improve performance, see Change extension settings to improve performance. Similarly, you might have tool windows that slow Visual Studio down.
The installation will normally take between 30-60 minutes, but it may be more depending on your internet connection. The installer will prompt you to restart your computer when it completes its tasks. Click Restart Now to continue.
Deleting the Visual Studio Installer files and then rerunning the bootstrapper solves some update failures. Performing the following actions reinstalls the Visual Studio Installer files and resets the installation metadata. Close the Visual Studio Installer. Delete the Visual Studio Installer installation directory.
I had the same problem with VS2017 Preview. I disabled IPV6 in the network adapter properties. After that the installer ran with full download speed.
