Current firmware (17.01.2) and previous (17.01.1) don't boot in a HG56BZRB VER.A, Serial 31301xxxx. Don't boot means that router gets the default ip, and after three seconds reboots in a loop.

As per Openwrt wiki (https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/huawei/hg556a) this serial is from the C version.
Using a 'B' firmware version makes the device boot, but without wifi.
Main difference is that B version has an atheros wifi chipset and C version has a Ralink wifi chipset.
Also, openwrt 15.05.1 for model C boots without wifi.
So, to sum up:
Boots without wifi:
openwrt-15.05.1-brcm63xx-generic-HG556a_C-squashfs-cfe.bin
lede-17.01.2-brcm63xx-generic-HG556a-B-squashfs-cfe.bin
Stuck in a loop, (boot+reset):
lede-17.01.2-brcm63xx-generic-HG556a-C-squashfs-cfe.bin
OpenWrt Chaos Calmer 15.05.1 / LuCI 15.05-188-g87e9837 Release (git-16.043.44305-e2f9172)
