Setup a 2nd WSUS server in your DMZ and use a single FQDN to manage WSUS.

WSUS and roaming user
Hello,
I have several user's who will be taking their computer's in and out of our office. These machines are currently connected to the WSUS server.. When these machines go home with the user's and can no longer communicate with the WSUS server (different network), is there a way to have these machines pull updates from Windows automatically??
The machines could be on a different network (home networks), without being able to communicate with the WSUS server for several days if not weeks.
Thanks

In my opinion, it is difficult for WSUS to achieve this function. Windows Update for business does help, but the process is complex. Or we could consider delaying the updates to the client. When these computers come back to the office, we may try to apply the latest CUs and SSUs for the clients.
Regards,
