I'm at 9 Mbps down and .6 Mbps up on DSL at a little after midnight and it decreases drastically during peak hours not to mention dropping out completely on a fairly regular basis. All of my friends are on cable and complain about the slowness of my internet when they're over, but the cable company pays the city I live in to keep the competition out (I really want FIOS), which angers me to the point I won't pay them for their services. So I pay more for slower and less reliable DSL...

At home I have 7.5Mb down (DSL) and probably less up (I never checked it).
At work I have 887Mb down and 831Mb up (I just tested it) so I am never going home again!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

It so happens Frontier (the old Verizon) gave us a complimentary upgrade from 25 / 25 to 100 / 100 this morning, complete with a new router compatible with the higher speed. I do believe I see smoke coming from my browser when I surf the net. 
Edit: I checked the speed: Actual upload is 98 and download is 105. Nice!
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!

Back in Melbourne I get about 12 down and 1 up. It's rough.
Here in Toronto I recently signed up for gigabit ethernet. I need to get onto them and give them a hard time about it because I'm only getting about 300 down / 100 up.
it's really, really nice 
cheers

100down/10up[^], throttled. Got fibre installed a while ago.
I could get 1000/1000 for twice the price, but I don't see the point, there are plenty of other bottlenecks around.

60D/20U Work from home and the speed is OK. Based in the UK, we're in the Lake District, rural, and about 3 miles from the Telephone Exchange and I'm still copper for 1/4mile to the street box.
My friend on the other side of the street can only get 30D/12U max on a good day. There are 2 copper truck cables back to the street box 1/4 mile away. I'm one bundle and he's on the other. So I guess the quality and distance of the last 1/4 mile copper makes a big differences.

Germany, 400 down, 20 up. When it doesn't decide to just give me 30% of my bandwidth suddenly.

Here in the countryside of Warwickshire UK, I get 31.3 Mbps download and 3.1 Mbps upload. I could double the speed by paying more, but it's good enough for me now that I'm retired.

Norway here. At home I have 150 down and 25 up. Here at work I have 27.52 Mbps down and 41.16 Mbps up according to the Ookla speed test I just ran.

Lousy network we have here... results in "Page not found"... Grrrr this is why we can't have nice things!

4 Mb down, 2 Mb up, ~15 ms network latency. I work in Virginia, USA and live & work in a rural area. Connectivity is necessary for work, but for me the latency is the important number (not the down/up numbers). If I can't keep that latency low, I can't be remotely logged in to servers and writing code.

1000 Mbps both directions using Google Fibre in Charlotte, North Carolina, USA (sometimes faster, sometimes slower). Fastest I ever saw was over 1200Mbps.

I'm at 40D/20U using CenturyLink DSL in Spokane WA.
I could probably go faster if I wanted but the added expense isn't justifiable. The speed is enough, consistent and reliable. The downside with them is they block various TCP ports so it's a bit of a pain for me to run the servers I want on my internal network. Had to play some games to move my email server internal but finally got it working.
At my old house in south eastern WA state I had Spectrum internet and got ~60D/30U and all TCP ports were wide open for me to do with as I pleased, plus in 3 years of using their service the IP address never changed.
Guess I got a bit spoiled, unfortunately Spectrum doesn't offer service in Spokane.

Here at the office it is 367D / 745U Speedtest.net by Ookla - My Results. First time my upload has ever been faster than download.
These speeds are necessary because almost all our servers are on AWS. And still it isn't fast enough.
I've got 100Mbit fiber at the house, but I haven't checked my speed there in a while.
If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

226 Down
12 Up (!)
Ping 26 ms
In Andover, Minnesota (suburban Twin Cities).
I suspect the disparity in up/down speeds is typical of internet service over a fiber/coax cable TV system.

168 Mbps down and 12 Mbps up with cable. (Paying for "up to" 100 Mbps.)
|
|
|
|

76Mbps down/20Mbps up. This is since fibre became available in our area last December (the best early Christmas present I've had!) - before that, it was 1.5Mbps down/1.5Mbps up...
The only positive of the old speed is that I still marvel at how fast our fibre is...
Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p

Attempting to do a "simple" Nuget restore here in Visual Studio 2017.
No.
They've removed the option where you just click at the top of "Manage Nuget Packages..." window.
Why? To make your life more difficult, of course.
Try restoring from Package Manager (PM) Console?
You need help docs. Ok. You install them from the PM Console. Whatevs.
PM>get-help restore
Lists the following:

Restore-WebConfiguration Cmdlet WebAdministration Restore-WebConfiguration...

Yes, I'm inside VS2017 and I'm supposedly looking at some helpful thing MS added so I can run some nuget commands via powershell so everything is easy. Here it allows me to do a Restore-Computer.
Whatevs!
Try
PM> Install-Package packages.config
Nope.
That doesn't do the restore. Just reports that the items are installed.
Ok. Google.
Find this:
NuGet Package Restore | Microsoft Docs[^]
Page down to the part where it tells you how to do a command-line nuget restore.
Hahaha!! hilarious. It tells you how to do this but not where Nuget.exe is installed.
Fire up a Visual Studio Command prompt (running as admin)?? 
Nope. Nuget isn't available from there.
You can't get there from here. 
EDIT -- SOLVED! But still terrible
Okay, so I was in a solution with two different projects and now amount of cajoling to Visual Studio would show the "Restore Packages" thing.
An CPer made an offhand remark about "multiple projects" and restore so I opened the target project in it's own copy of Visual Studio 2017 and went to "Manage Nuget Packages" and lo and behold!!! The restore option appeared at the top.
Still terrible, Microsoft!!!

What kind of magic do you have there?
I do not have that option under my Build...menu on 2013 or 2017.
Is there something I turn on to see that?
EDIT
Oh, yours mentions "bundles" so probably a web project.
Also, I have the setting, "Automatically check for missing packages during build in Visual Studio" but that doesn't work either.
Oh, wait, I'll try deleting all the packages folders....

No known magic - only my usual...
I got that on right click on the solution node... it may be hidden to you if there is only one project there... force to show it...

I had to open the project in its own copy of VStudio.
When you mentioned "if there is only one project there..." it made me think of trying that.
(I edited the OP to show the solution).
Thanks,
