There was 2 option to update xamarin that requires internet connection while running visual studio
1. Whenever you choose xamarin template to build apps, visual studio detects whether new version of xamarin is available and if so then choose from there.

Well, that deployment part was fixed. But I still cannot update Xamarin because well, there's no option in VS 2017 to do so. See screenshot in post?
