Q: My macbook constantly disconnects from bluetooth network

I have my phone connected to my Mac via Bluetooth. It stays connected just fine. When I try to use the Bluetooth PAN to connect to the internet, that's another story. The Bluetooth PAN works for about 5 seconds, then suddenly disconnects (yet the phone remains tethered via Bluetooth to the Mac). How do I solve this problem?
