The result of:

is
     342__2_2_1
and
     subnetworkA: <xsl:value-of select="../../Subnetwork[@id='342__2_2_1']/@name"/>
is
     M
but if I mixed the comands together it does not work:
     subnetworkA: <xsl:value-of select="../../Subnetwork[@id='{../TopologicalEndPoints/TopologicalEndPointA/SubnetworkRef/@idref}']/@name"/>

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"/>

There could be better ways to achieve what you want.
