Help Androids VPN to connect to home network possible over metro network?

Ok, admittedly this is a pretty technical question. The guy at metro's tech support had no clue what I was asking so hopefully I'll have more luck here as there are some brilliant developers on this forum.

I'm trying to connect my phone to my home network with androids built in VPN feature. For some reason I can't get a connection. I know the VPN setup is configured correctly on the server side because I have no problems with it on other computers. I can connect from my work PC to my home network no problem.

I can see my VPN port is open from my phone so I think metro might be blocking the protocol (GRE - Protocol 47) since it might make it hard for them to monitor data usage. My question is, has anyone gotten this to work?
