Angular2: Same url routing cause page refresh

This is part of my app NgModule:

@NgModule({
    imports: [
        RouterModule.forRoot([
            { path: '', component: testComponent },
            { path: 'test', component: anotherTestComponent }
        ], { useHash: true })

That is the only place where i declare my routing. I'm encountering this problem: starting from root (/#/) i go first to "test" (/#/test) and then move back to root. Here, if i click enter on address bar (with the root path), my whole app is reloaded. I get the same if i go to "test" first and then re-enter the "test" path on the address bar. I didn't test router-link within my app.

This is how the browser works, when you hit enter on the address bar it triggers a page refresh.

To navigate through a Single Page App you use routes/links inside the app, not hitting enter on the address bar.
