Yes that confused me when I was first told but it certainly works on the Netgear routers - 
in any case the router knows which interface is which. I don't know if it always/usually 
works or if its limited to Netgear.

I've seen talk of a similar trick where you use a cross over cable between two routers 
and both ends of the cable have the same ip address.
