when I launch my docker quickstart terminal, It was clogged by "waiting for an IP" and no response at all.

Could someone tell me how to deal with?

This is an older thread but this is what worked for me in Windows 10 Home with Docker Toolbox. Docker was stuck in "Waiting for an IP".

  1. Close all docker terminals.
  2. Open VirtualBox, shut the docker instance down (if running), and remove it.
  3. Start Docker Quickstart Terminal with Administrator Rights and wait for it to set everything up. This is the step that docker was previously getting stuck in.
  4. (Optional) If you are curious to see what is happening behind the scenes, you can choose "Show" on the (now 'running') docker VM in VirtualBox.
  5. Once 'docker' finishes booting, you can close the docker terminal and run it again without Admin rights.
