As i said, but seems that you do not understand. To receive correctly into your LN channels you MUST provide route hints. Otherwise who is sending you the sats over LN cannot see your channels. The wallet interface you are using for your private node MUST insert route hints.

I am not using my private node infrastructure for this. I was trying out swaps using the link you provided, but the swap from mainchain BTC to Lightning BTC failed. Now, I have submitted a refund request. The LN invoice was raised from Wallet of Satoshi, a custodial LN setup. I am sure their liquidity management is better than mine. The on-chain transfer to swapmarket was confirmed more than six times(Tx ID: c80741d93d885609d3e0cc7f28d94d7d0c7dd0e72b6b4a60fefb32cee0d6afad) . I hope I have made myself clearer.

It seems I need to wait 24 hrs before I can get the refund. It has been a frustrating experience, but the middleway person has been constantly in touch and giving his points of view. But he is also far from RCA, except for blaming my transaction on bad luck. Will inform if the issue gets resolved in 24hrs and I get my sats back.

The refund did not work even after 24 hours. However, the middleway(swap service provider working with Boltz software in the backend) person kept me updated on the process throughout. I helped debug the issue a little by sending screenshots of the console while requesting a refund. He had to raise a GitHub issue and tried tweaking this manually, and it worked. I finally have my sats back. Otherwise, I would have had to wait 7 days(block height till timeout). I do not know what technically happened in detail, but I learned a lot from swaps in the process. In summary, if a user's feedback for production software leads to a GitHub issue, I conclude that swaps(at least on-chain to LN) are not ready for prime-time. Though I appreciate the middleway person sticking with me(having some tough conversations) till the issue got resolved.
