Docker on Windows – Network Issues

Posted on March 6, 2017 by gavinbarron

Recently after updating to version 17.0.3.0 I noticed some network related issues while attempting to install new npm packages and interact with Docker Hub.

Attempting to search on Docker Hub would reliably fail 

docker search dotnet
Error response from daemon: Get https://index.docker.io/v1/search?q=dotnet&=25: dial tcp: lookup index.docker.io on 192.168.65.1:53: read udp 192.168.65.2:43594->192.168.65.1:53: i/o timeout

Turns out the fix was remarkably simple, instead of using the Automatic DNS Server switching to a fixed DNS Server resolved the issue:

docker network settings
