Does your wifi ap have a route through the gateway / default route? Also does your wifi ap allow management outside the local subnet?
Unless it has a default gateway it won't know where to send the packets back to in order to reach you. If it doesn't allow management from remote addresses you may need to allow "remote management" and a remote range to allow to manage. In this case dst nat changes the packet destination as you saw but the source is still your own IP address so it will be outside the subnet and also "remote" Try check those to and if it's still not working let us know.
