I work a lot with different kind of routers, openwrt and other
embedded systems, and they all usually use same address - 192.168.1.1,
so Ubuntu message is quite useful because gives me simple command that
I just copy/paste so I can get rid of old finderprint and I can
connect to new device with same IP but obviously different ssh
fingerprint.
