Separating 2 public networks over 1 vnic

II have 2 public networks being routed to me by my provider.  How can I separate them to be used on different vm's?  The provider tells me that the subnets are not tagged with vlan id's, so how can I separate them with port groups?  I have 2 ports groups set up now and can ping both subnets from each vm right now (reference pic).  I want vm1 to only use network 3.3.3.0 and vm2 to only use network 4.4.4.0.

An odd-looking setup.

If you don’t set a default gateway in the guest OSes they won’t know about the router therefore won’t be able to access IPs outside of their own subnet. Nothing to do with vSphere, but does what you’ve asked.
