255.255.255.255

Why would you be trying to broadcast to everyone in the world? Try 192.168.2.255. If it's not on the same subnet it would need to be a different address.

However, Tardis can be configured to broadcast on
any address.  What is/are the recommended IP
address(es)?

No it can't. There are only (relatively) few broadcast addresses and the routers have to support them or it will drop the packets if they are not link local.
