the last time I looked at the setup of someone who had Smart Bro 
(in Cagayan de Oro too, Marvin), Smart Bro gave him a local IP
(192.x.x.x).

So even if Smart Bro isn't filtering, incoming connections to them
wouldn't work at all anyway since they're just not reachable (well,
by something connecting to them from outside, I'm not sure what
happens when you have a Smart Bro local IP client sending out
UDP requests outward, in Linux iptables allow related/established
and NAT, the replies would be forwarded inward (I think, haven't
tested).  But Smart Bro's setup might not allow that.

Maybe get your mother-in-law to install hamachi and then rendezvous
in hamachi and you can then test things out on her computer.  e.g.,
install openvpn and see if you can make a connection outward to an
openvpn UDP server.  or, hehehe, since this is KLUG, you could
just find someone on the list who might be willing to go over there
and test things out for you :-).
