Because of this it has no direct access to the network interface. So even if you run your reverse proxy container in host mode, the VM that is running Docker desktop still uses an IP handed out by Windows rather than the Windows host IP. 192.168.65.1 is the IP address Windows gives the WSL VM that runs Docker on your Windows box. I’ve had the same problem myself, and the only way that I found to fix this is to use Linux for the host OS. Reference
