Doc UpdateVelocity's DetectionFrequency
If we update the GPO/MDM DetectionFrequency from 22h to 4h on low connected machines, 1) does Update/UpdateServiceURL need to be configured to the WSUS Server and 2) what would the impact and risk be on increasing to the 4h frequency?

This policy is only impactful if using WSUS. It can help to ensure devices scan and are able to start updates sooner once approved, but will also increase load to your servers and network traffic. When a device is on the default frequency, then if a device isn't on or connected during the scheduled scan time, it will automatically scan the next time the user logs in.
