A device for facilitating data communication in a peer-to-peer network may include at least one processor circuit. The processor circuit may be configured to initiate, in or outside a discovery time window, a data connection setup with a second device. The processor circuit may be configured to, when the data connection setup is not completed within the discovery time window, select a negotiation time window based on at least one of an advertised availability of the device or an advertised availability of the second device and resume, in the negotiation time window, the data connection setup. The processor circuit may be configured to receive information associated with one or more data transfer time windows from the second device upon completion of the data connection setup, where the one or more data transfer time windows are selected based at least on the data connection setup.
