Solution
Are your security settings
(SSID/password) correct?
Reconfirm the SSID and password.
If you are using your machine as a G/O (Group Owner) in manual configuration,
the SSID and password are displayed on the machine's control panel during the
configuration procedure.
If you are using your mobile device as a G/O (Group Owner) in manual
configuration, the SSID and password are displayed on the mobile device's
screen during the configuration procedure.

I have checked and tried all of

configuration. Is there
anything else I can do?
Turn your Brother machine Off and back On. Then try and configure the Wi-Fi
Direct settings again.
If you are using your Brother machine as a client, confirm how many devices
are allowed in the current Wi-Fi Direct network and then check how many
devices are connected.
