I can only see servers in the same subnet.

I used browstat.exe and got this message

Status for domain LEGACYTEXAS on transport
\Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{10D5FE7A-894F-4CBE-B48C-CD5CBBF03EE8}
Browsing is active on domain.
Master browser name is: ??????
Could not connect to registry, error = 53 Unable to determine build
of browser master: 53
Unable to determine server information for browser master: 123
2 backup servers retrieved from master ??????

Browse lists are built by broadcasts, so they do not cross routers. A
segment browser builds a list for its segment and the Domain Master Browser
builds a combined list. For this to work you need to have all the machines
registering in WINS so that the DMB can find the SMBs. It it theoreticaly
possible (but messy) to use LMHOSTS files instead. See KB 150800 . It's an
old one but W2k/2k3 work the same way. Browsing is an NT legacy service.
