The problem was that the proxy was blocking the request.

After some headaches, i finally got how to setup up proxy for docker on windows server from the right guide:

Using powershell in elevated mode:

  1. Set environment variable to HTTP_PROXY environment variable
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("HTTP_PROXY", "http://username:password@proxy:port/", [EnvironmentVariableTarget]::Machine)

May not need to specify credentials, if your proxy don't require it.

  1. Restart docker
 Restart-Service docker

Now it should run:

docker run hello-world
