The result of:

and

     M
but if I mixed the comands together it does not work:

You are comparing the @id attribute with the string
 '{../TopologicalEndPoints/Top...'
It's no surprise it doesn't work as expected.

You can try
 <xsl:value-of select="../../Subnetwork[
   @id=current()/../TopologicalEndPoints/TopologicalEndPointA/SubnetworkRef/@idref]/@name"/>
