Answer:

Here's why Jupiter is not classed anywhere in the "brown dwarf" club:

It's too "small". Even the lightest brown dwarfs have a mass at least 7 to 10 times of Jupiter.

Jupiter does not produce it's own light. Which brings me to:

Jupiter is far too cold. It's temperature ranges from as low as -150 Celsius to -90 Celsius. Brown dwarfs usually have temperatures between 200 to 1,800 degrees Celsius, altough some have been found to be as low at 20-30 Celsius as well, which is somewhat comfortable for humans. On Earth that is, not so much on a brown dwarf.

Jupiter lacks the means to produce its own nuclear fusion in the core. The low mass and core temperature disallows natural fusion to take place. Of course, we have been able to produce nuclear fusion in controlled laboratory equipment (Sorry, no future energy yet!). Of course, many brown dwarfs also lack this capacity, but some are indeed able to produce their own fusion.

An L-type dwarf star is 50-100 times the mass of Jupiter and ~1,100 to 1,800 degrees Celsius. It is the most likely to produce nuclear fusion in its core.

A T-type dwarf star will likely be 10-50 times Jupiter's mass and be mostly composed of methane. Their temperature ranges between 400 to 1,100 degrees Celsius.

Lastly, a Y-class dwarf will be a few times to 10 times Jupiter's mass. The line between a planet and dwarf star may also be contested. They are cool relative to other stars, up to 400 degrees Celsius. Some may even be around 20-30 Celsius, the same temperature as someone's room.
