I’m trying to run a Bebop2 using ROS and Bebop_autonomy from inside a container. When I run the container on Linux with --network=host, everything works correctly and there are no problems. However, when I try to run it on my windows machine, I never receive any of the ACK packets back when I start …

I ended up creating another switch in the Hyper-V manager, telling it to only use an external wifi-adapter. I connected that adapter to the bebop, and it seemed to work correctly. There has to be an easier way though.

Hey there! I’ve also been struggling with this issue, and can’t for the love of my life figure out why --net=host won’t work in windows. Could you be a bit more specific on how you did to connect a new Hyper-v switch to a container? Or did you change from “dockerNAT” to the new one? Any help would b…

I actually filmed a video tutorial for a project I’m working on. This is meant to help someone go from nothing to being able to use all of the work we’ve done so far. Setting Up Docker for Windows Watch from 2:12 until around 4:20. This might not be exactly what you need, but it works for our use c…

Incredibly, I could not find any answer of how to do it anywhere on the web. First I thought Docker should have a configuration for it or a different process to create and use custom networks on Windows, but the truth is that Docker has nothing to do with this issue. It is merely a matter of Windows…

This is awesome ! And I really think people should not forget simplicity and tradition methods of networking. This indeed is valuable and informative. Wish we had some discussion on the web using such lines. Great work pal ! Appreciate it :wink:

You are my hero mate! I was stuck with this problem for 2 weeks and could not figure it out what the hell is wrong. I followed your steps and it worked on first go. Thanks allot. But manually adding the IP needs to be done everytime the machine is restarted which is annoying.

Hi @bpunie , I don’t understand when you say you need to “re-add the IP every time the machine reboots”. It is not the case for me or my team. I have implemented the same process in many places and it works flawlessly, and the configuration sticks. Can you describe your process? Most likely somethi…

Sorry, my bad. I was switching between Hyper-V and VirtualBox which means turning off Hyper-V to work with VirtualBox and when I turned Hyper-V back on. I had to add the IP again to DockerNAT. It should not happen if we just keep the Hyper-V running no matter how many times we restart. Thanks for ge…

Hi again @bpunie , There is actually another way to set the network environment to stick the configurations regardless of how many times you reset your Docker. Basically, instead of adding the IPs to the vEthernet (DockerNAT), you may want to add them to the vEthernet (Default Switch). It should re…

I am using Windows-11 home edition where, I use WSL-2 instead of hyper-v. Can you please guide me how can we setup the bridge for WSL

@sferrell615 posted a SO link that discusses how to use WSL2 in bridge mode (unreleated to docker’s bridge network):
