If it´s a problem of your mobile only, you should factory reset it. Backup important data before. If this doesn´t work, your phone is defective.
all updates done on the phone and the laptop´s wifi is working correctly? Maybe updating the wifi driver can help. Or did you connect it by USB?

Does the laptop have DHCP enabled or is it a static IP?
