Container is not available anymore for any new connections

[yarimiz]

Describe the bug
After some time running, the container becomes unavailable/unreachable for new connections, for for ib_insync and VNC.
The container is running on GCP VM (Compute Engine), the server itself is reachable via SSH and I can confirm the container is running. I couldn't find any meaningful log. But maybe you can tell me where to look.

Once I restart the container (just docker stop and docker start, even without restarting the server), new connections are being accepted for IB and VNC

To Reproduce
Start the container and let it run for a few hours.

Expected behavior
The container should be reachable at all times.
