Refreshing data never goes right, help?!

Hi,

 

I have a data source (ODBC) running on one computer. It's always on and has a wired internet connection. It's connected to a database from our website. The serverconnection can only be accessed by whitelisted IP's.


I want that data source refreshed a couple times a day and I want to view the updated data on my phone / other computer.

 

I made a personal gateway, I connected it and scheduld refreshes. This part went okay. But for some reason it never refreshes, not even why I 'force' refresh. Sometimes the gateway program on the 'always-on' computer magicly quits. And the connection is lost.

 

What is the right way to set this up? That it refreshes once in three hours? Why shouldn't I use the on-premise gateway?

When I tried the on-premise gateway I was required to enter a connection string (which I don't know). I could not find any relevant answers.

 

If someone could help me achieve this please.

 

Thanks in advance,
