Windows-itpro-docs: Network issues should be better organized

[zjalexander]

I frequently deal with customers who are getting errors about being unable to download updates. This is frequently caused by:
1) Not being aware a WSUS server is configured which is unreachable
2) Having corporate firewall rules that are blocking WSUS

It would be helpful to have a single scenario that lists out:

• How to check if a WSUS server is configured and how to ensure it is reachable/operable if so
• How to check if WU/MU is reachable
• What URLs need to be accessible to ensure access to WU/MU.
  Right now this is cobbled across the Configure Windows Update topic, Windows Update error code reference, and this document. It would be very helpful if this was all organized in a single place.
