Try resetting the DNS-345 to the factory default settings.  While the DNS-345 is powered-up, press and hold the reset button on the rear of the unit for > 9 seconds.

Tried already... Didn't help. The OLED shows the same message always

Oh, it's the OLED that was flashing...

I'm going to assume this DNS-345 is fresh out-of-the-box and not yet configured. Enter the DNS-345 IP address into an Internet browser on your LAN. You can configure your DNS-345 after logging into the web UI (username: admin; password: [blank])

Yes, it is out-of-the-box and the problem that I don't know it IP... It is not 192.168.0.32 and the device as I already said doesn't want to show me anything except of friendly wellcome message

Log into your router and look at the network device table. The DNS-345 will be listed there.

Keep the DNS-345 connected your router; log into your router web UI and look for the device in the network table; and transcribe the IP address into a new browser window.

I don't have a wi-fi routers (its a SOHO) so I connected it to one of the routers and scanned the network - there is no new device...

What does "scanning the network" mean?

What model router do you have?  Can you log into the router Web UI using a browser from a PC connected to the router? The router contains a table listing all connected networked devices (wireless and wired).

nKognito, 

If you can't get to the information on your router and are using windows on your PC you can download netscan and use that to give you information about devices on your network.
