I got router in my home, and I would like to send message to everyone using it. I mean like one that will show up on their screen. I tried to look for answer, but it wasn't what I wanted. It would also be helpful if it could be done for specific IP.

1That's technology I haven't actually seen since the 90s. The modern equivalent is a house full of Home Pods …Hey Siri, tell everyone dinner's ready ;) – Tetsujin Nov 15 '21 at 14:24

Turn off the router, and let everyone come to you. That'll get the message across... No, I'm kidding. There's no way to do this. Another way is to use something like Slack, Discord, telegram, etc... and put everyone in the same group. You have to move them if their situation changes. If its for admin purpose, create a distribution list per router and put people in there. Don't forget to update the list if someone changes to a different router – LPChip Nov 15 '21 at 14:24

You could use in the Command Prompt (CMD) the
msg command
like this to send a message to all users logged on to the
computer named someone:
msg * /server:someone Hi everybody
If you have several computers to message regularly, you could create
a .bat file for all of them, like:
msg * /server:someone1 %*
msg * /server:someone2 %*
And it can be called by: filename.bat this is my message.

I think it's the Messenger service or similar and that hasn't been enabled by default on Windows systems since Vista. – LawrenceC Nov 15 '21 at 15:50
