If I understand correctly, you want the connection to avoid overlapping
nodes. This is not possible with ManhattanConnectionRouter. The router
that gives this functionality is ShortestPathConnectionRouter, but then
of course you sacrifice orthogonal routing.

You can order your layers so that connection layer comes beneath the
nodes layer, so that connections do not lie on top of nodes, but pass
underneath them.

Or you can write an orthogonal router that will also avoid obstacles :)
