Presumably the packets will be encapsulated so that should not be an issue.

Unless they filter encapsulated packets (protocol 4)... or are filtering ICMP...

In which case you should either pick a provider that doesn't intentionally break your network, or failing that, tunnel your traffic.

This is only for containers communicating with each other within the FAN. Any traffic bound to external networks would have to be NAT'd, which is fine.
