[Version: 6.12.6] Multiple docker networks with VPN

[Steve1985]

I am using several containers with a VPN (wireguard) server to mask my public IP. This works great. However i wanted to add a reverse proxy to my setup and stumbled across using container names to configure this. Sounds good. But some containers use wg0 network and others use a different network. I have tried adding a second network with

docker network connect my-net my-nginx

That does work the containers can now ping each other on their container name. However it no longer uses the VPN server's IP for outgoing connections.

 

Is there a way to use 2 docker networks together but still have the VPN IP address as the public IP of that container?

So for example:

nzbget uses both wg0 and <customerdockernetwork> as its network while routing traffic over the VPN and using the external IP of the VPN.

After hours of fiddling tweaking and reading posts and watching youtube i am stuck on this. Hope someone can point me in the right direction
