Who is on? How do you speak with others? Over the local network using the broadcast IP?

If the network and computers are fast, this can be used in companies to talk over the local network. All messages appear instantly and the app uses multi threading so the app won't lag when sending the message.

You can talk with everyone with UDP too. You just need a list on each client with who is connected.

Will it work if i forward the port?

Yes Vik, but forward UDP port 54545 not TCP port 54545
Just one improvement, use IPAddress.Broadcast.ToString() to get the broadcast address, I think it may vary from router to router.
