Answer 1

You can set a proxy for Visual Studio as in https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn771556.aspx :

Find devenv.exe.config (the devenv.exe configuration file) in: %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\IDE (or %ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\IDE).

In the configuration file, find the block, and add this code: XML

  
    "/>  
  

You must insert the correct proxy address for your network in proxyaddress="http://.
