After the tip once again to look into the event log and another few minutes searching, I came across the log files generated by the client in C: \ Windows named "WindowsUpdate.log". Who would have thought.
Okay let's see.
Here is a small excerpt from the interesting part, where it can be assumed the error.

So I got the idea for the error code "0x80244021" to search.
Here are the results.

The first surprise was big, because WSUS is at the same network as the clients. Then I remembered a setting that I had recently changed.
It is called Proxy Auto Configuration. I activated it and gave the information to further the goal of wpad.dat files via DHCP to the computer. After disabling the feature and then "wuauclt / detectnow" could be seen the next day that the clients could pull back your diligent updates.
Now I'll probably employ me again with the script to the WPAD file.
I hope I could help you with your troubleshooting a bit.
Greetings Sascha
