Search warrant for what? All TCP/IP enabled devices? Or the router? An IP address doesn't even uniquely identify a single device.
(Also given how search warrants are executed in the US and how long they can seize these devices for, I don't know if I'd say it's "acceptable". I'm in favour of setting the bar high to protect the innocent.)
