I'm struggling to pull images from Docker and keep getting an error. I've attempted this on a few different machines on the same network, but the problem persists. Is anyone else facing this issue? Here's the error message I keep receiving when I try to run a Docker pull:
docker pull hello-world
Using default tag: latest
latest: Pulling from library/hello-world

error pulling image configuration: download failed after attempts=6: dial tcp 172.64.66.1:443: i/o timeout

Regarding the 'library' part of the image name, it usually denotes images that are from Docker's official library. I can still pull the hello-world image without any issues, so it seems like something might be off with your connection or setup.
The IP address you're trying to connect to isn't a private range. If it's redirecting to that, it might indicate a proxy server, so check with your IT team if you're on a corporate network. If you're using a personal setup, you'll need to investigate why it's aimed at that specific IP.
It might just be a temporary issue on your end, but downtime at Docker Hub isn't unheard of. Try checking out their status page at dockerstatus.com. If that doesn't help, consider switching up your DNS providers or even pulling the image from a different network, just in case it's something specific to your setup.
