We didn't find a fix, but we did find a work-around.
Basically, one of us has to play with our Xbox on wifi, and one of us has to play connected with an ethernet cable.
We can't both be hard wired, or it doesn't work.
We tried to assign different MAC addresses, and made sure the port forwarding was setup correctly but that did nothing. Additionally, Telus tech support was not able to help at all, zero, whatsoever. The guy on the phone literally didn't know a thing about any of that.
I'm told that if you have a 3rd party gaming router of your own, that it wouldn't be a problem but apparently Telus doesn't let you have more than one IP assignment which is why the game thinks you're one person and the wifi thing works.
