You have to handle this in your code. You can switch the XML file URL according to where it downloaded from.

But then in the code i need to build for multiple configurations of the url. Maybe there is a cache or cookies

You still have to implement a way to know from where the app was downloaded. You can create a registry entry on installation or if it is a portable app you can include a json file indicating where it was downloaded. Then in the app, you can just read that file or registry entry to determine which update XML file you want to use.

Maybe select the server during update? Show a prompt with all available servers for update

That is possible. You can present a dialog to the user and according to the server they select you can change the XML file you feed to the AutoUpdater.
