This is my first take on the subject. This should resolve most issues. What is not clear is what the airvpn does with the original source addresses of the incoming traffic to its site.

Did some more testing but still no luck. However I have to admit the hapax3 is not setup as a router but simply an AP switch behind a CCR1009 main router, with one primary WAN.

I am not a zerotier expert, but assuming stating the zerotier interface on the input chain rule was not enough or accurate, perhaps you need to add actual IP address???

A wider rule, that is often prescribed is dst-address=192.168.12.0/24 src=addres192.168.12.0/24

What is the management vlan or trusted vlan, and do the capacs and switch get an IP address from this VLAN?
In other words do not see vlan99 above, and it should be going from rb4011 to both capacs as well.

the idea is that 192.168.77.1/30 means only two usable IP addresses 192.168.77.1 and 192.167.77.2 hence plug in your laptop to ether24 and ensure 192.168.77.2 is set manually on the laptops IPV4 settings.
