From virtual machine that are not able to connect to the internet, what happens if you try ping a public IP like "ping 8.8.8.8" ?

Any chance you attach a ipconfig (Windows) or ifconfig (Linux) output from a VM that is working and from a VM that is not working ?

Your vSphere ESXi vSwitch has multiple vmnics or just a single vmnic (physical NIC) ? From the virtual machine that you're not able to reach the internet you can at least ping the default gateway: ping 192.168.6.1 ?

Since you're able to ping the gateway, the ESXi network seems that don't have problem and let me think that there is a problem with the guest itself. Please share the output from the following commands:

route print

tracert -d 8.8.8.8
