What does your routing table look like for each setup? Are you using
the same interface to reach both gateways? Are both gateways the same
device?
I would need to know more about your setup, but the gateway could be set
up so that packets from 44.0.0.0/8 can only connect to other 44.0.0.0/8
addresses. If this is the case, and the gateway is the same machine for
both networks, you should be able to add a virtual interface, so that
you have 142.176.139.107 for eth0, and 44.135.34.210 for eth0:1. You
would configure thing so that the 44.0.0.0 network uses eth0:1 with
gateway 44.135.34.201, and the default route uses eth0 and gateway
142.1786.139.106.
Now, if you use different interfaces for the two different IPs, then it
is ever simpler.
