Wifi tethering keeps giving no internet access until restart



I connect to the internet on both my laptop and my other phone via my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7" by wifi tethering.

Sometimes the internet works for a while and then i get that yellow exclamation mark on the wifi signal bars at the bottom right corner of my laptop screen (i am running windows 8. Same when i was running windows 7). Hover the mouse over it and it says "no internet access". So in order to get internet access to come back, i have to restart the Tab. As soon as i restart it, internet access comes back like normal. A min later, same thing happens. Internet access goes. Sometimes it goes within secs of restarting the Tab and tethering! sometimes a few minutes, sometimes hours...its just random like that. Nothing that i am doing/ru nning in spesific to cause this to happen either. It just randomly decides to go. Some days are good and some arent.

2 things are for sure...1) its not the laptop cz as soon as it goes on it, whatever other devices that are connected to the tab's interent also lose internet access. The connection never breaks though. Just the internet access. 2) Restarting the Tab immedietely fixes the ptoblem...although sometimes just temporarily.

The internet on the Tab itself works fine at all times.

Any ideas what is going on and how to fix it?
