can we download and install sdk by a clever way?

[nick yong]

in fact , I have the while sdk directorys. in c:/ncs/v3.1.0
but,the nrf extension in vscode cannot recognize it. it always info me to install a sdk in welcome page.
so, I must re download and install sdk again.

but, when I download to 50%, the bandwidth slow down. I try it for several times。

can I get a clever way to download the sdk?
for example. when I stop the download and close vscode. and then I open vscode and continued to download from the stop point ?
or, I downloa the sdk offline. and make the vscode extension knows the sdk is ready?
how much time is wast on this downloading sdk.

That internet connection looks well below acceptable not just for the SDKs but also for this forum here or the online docs to be used effectively. Try using a cable instead of WLAN.

The SDK consists mostly of git repos, which can resume br0ken connection somewhat. But its not all downloaded in a single step, its multiple git repos downloaded one after the other.
