If you happen to be a (Linux) power user travelling on a Deutsche Bahn [ICE
long-distance train][ice] and you wonder why you don't get a working network
connection with the complimenatary "WIFIonICE" wireless network, there may be a
network interference on your laptop.
There are multiple solutions for this on the web. My favorite solution is to
change Docker's network configuration by editing (or creating) the file
`/etc/docker/daemons.json`. However, you may need to prune existing Docker
networks first. Otherwise the Docker service will fail to start with the
following message:
```plain
failed to start daemon: Error initializing network controller: error creating default "bridge" network: all predefined address pools have been fully subnetted
```
Therefore, I recommend the following steps (this is on a Fedora Linux system with *systemd*):
1. Stop any docker containers that you may have running, including services managed by docker compose.
2. Prune the networks:
```bash
docker network prune
```
3. Create or edit `/etc/docker/daemon.json` so that it contains the following:
```plain
{
"default-address-pools":
[
{"base":"172.19.0.0/16","size":24}
]
}
```
4. Restart docker:
```bash
systemctl restart docker
```
5. Connect to `WIFIonICE` and enjoy your network connection :-)

the answer about pruning the networks below.

- If you don't want to or cannot configure your Docker networks, you can also
turn Docker off and on again when you travel:

This is what I used to do myself, but nowadays I prefer to just configure the
Docker network differently.

won't copy all those links into my post, see DuckDuckGo search results
