Question about buying two copies and playing MP online over same IP

I am thinking of buying a 2nd copy so my son and I can play together online, but I know certain servers, such as Steam have a problem recognizing two separate games from the same IP.

I am wondering if any of you have bought 2 copies and are playing online (not LAN or Direct) over the same network IP?

Should this work ok? I don't want to buy another copy and find out my son and I cannot play together against some of our other friends who have bought the game.

I'd like to know this as well, for my dad and I.

It will work fine. That's how I tested most of the time. I would even run two copies on the same machine :)
