On my Linux Host docker containers I’m using following network settings to be able to connect to the host via the gateway IP 172.29.6.254:

networks:
  default:
    ipam:
      driver: default
      config:
        - subnet: 172.29.0.0/16
          ip_range: 172.29.6.0/24
          gateway: 172.29.6.254

I wanted to do the same on my windows host with docker desktop (wsl2). I can ping the gateway, but connections are refused.
I thought it might end up in the wsl2 instance, but I opened a port with nc inside wsl2 and also can’t connect to that. I can connect to the windows host by host.docker.internal, but I want to have a fixed IP address and not resolve the hostname.

Network inspect looks exactly the same like on my linux host:

docker network inspect dummy_default

Does anyone have some insight why this is not working and how I can debug it?
