There isn't something inbuilt to achieve the same functionality. But there
are always workarounds for the same.

1. You can write a windows service that will ping the internet for the
current values and then update the respective tables.
2. You can write a job / windows scheduler that will query at specified
interval of time and then update the tables.

Or you can use any offline mechanisms for the same.
