Windows 11 insider preview is divided into two channels: one is beta, and the other is Dev. Beta is the next version that will be released, while the Dev channel includes features that can make it into the next stable update. It’s counterintuitive to test the Beta channel, rather than just download and hop to the latest Windows 10 insider preview ISO and get it installed on your computer.

Yes sometimes it does take that much time. You can try editing the Configfile where set AddUpdates value to 2, it’ll be done under 30 minutes then.
